 "Throwback Tuesday: When Kangana Ranaut called Urmila Matondkar 'soft porn star': 'If she can get a ticket, why won't...'")
Back in 2020, when the Hindi film industry was at its absolute nadir, and when all the scathing spotlights were on it, Kangana Ranaut called actress Urmila Matondkar a “soft porn star” in an interview with a media channel.
After receiving backlash on social media, Kangana tweeted that she did not say anything derogatory. In her interaction, Kangana spoke about an interview by Urmila that she had seen.
In the interview, Urmila had stated that drug consumption was a countrywide menace. She had alleged that Himachal Pradesh was the origin point for drugs and Kangana should question her own state first.
Kangana said, “The way she was talking about me, pulling faces, making a mockery about my struggles, attacking me on the fact that I am trying to appease BJP for a ticket. One doesn’t have to be a genius to figure, for me it is not very difficult to get a ticket.”
Thereafter, Kangana called Urmila “a soft porn star.” “She is not known for her acting for sure, what is she known for? For doing soft porn, right. If she could get a ticket, why wouldn’t I get a ticket?
Urmila Matondkar reacts
In response, Urmila shared a picture of Shivaji that came along with a quote. When translated, the quote in Marathi means: “Jealousy keeps burning people. The only way to conquer jealousy is by practicing moderation.”
जय महाराष्ट्र 🙏🏼

On 24th March, Kangana Ranaut announced that she is set to fight the Lok Sabha election from Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi on the BJP’s ticket.
And now, speaking to ANI, the actress and now politician not only wished everyone on the occasion of Holi, but also opened up on what her future plans are after being appointed as BJP’s candidate from Mandi.
She was quoted saying, “This is my ‘janmabhoomi’ and it has called me back, I am fortunate…If they choose me, I will serve them. I am overwhelmed, this is an emotional day for my family and me. I express heartfelt gratitude to BJP chief JP Nadda…BJP’s culture is one of cooperating with one another. Believing in the same, I will walk with them and we will win…We will have a big campaign…”
