Bollywood is well known for its vivid narratives, fascinating characters, and glamorous, star-studded settings. But underneath the glittering exterior is a landscape frequently tainted by bitter rivalries and public disputes. These disputes regularly make headlines, providing insight into celebrity life’s complexity.
The 2016 scandal involving actor Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut tells us a lot about actor’s personal lives
When Kangana called Hrithik a “silly ex,” Hrithik quickly refuted the accusation, claiming he had never had a love relationship with Kangana. This is when the argument began. In response, Kangana showed her emails and pictures that proved their close relationship. But Hrithik said that the emails were sent by a fraudster and brought a lawsuit against the unidentified person. This led to the two exchanging a number of legal notifications.

As allegations and counter-accusations flew in, the conflict became more heated and gained headlines. Hrithik maintained that Kangana was making this whole thing up, despite her claims that he had proposed to her. Both performers gave their accounts of the conflict in interviews and on social media, and the media carefully tracked the controversy. However, despite cyber and police investigations, the issue was not solved.
Kangana publicly criticized Hrithik throughout the years, but he chose to keep a respectful silence. Following Aryan Khan’s arrest, Hrithik was among the first well-known celebrities to back him; Kangana swiftly denounced this action. Over the years, the public has been captivated by this continuing rivalry.
However, the matter recently took an unexpected turn when Kangana Ranaut was smacked at the Chandigarh airport by CISF official Kulwinder Kaur over her previous comments criticizing the Indian farmers’ protest. Public opinion has been split over this occurrence. While some people applaud the CISF official’s actions, others denounce them.

Several famous people reacted to the incident by commenting and liking the statement that Faye D’Souza shared on Instagram on Sunday. In her message, she said,
“With reference to the incident of MP Kangana Ranaut being slapped at an airport, violence can never be the answer. Especially not in our country that was born out of Gandhi’s ideals of non- violence. It doesn’t matter how much we disagree with views and statements made by someone, we cannot react with violence and we should not condone it. It is particularly dangerous when security personnel react violently while in uniform. Imagine, over the last ten years, if those of us who questioned power were assaulted at airports by constables who were in agreement with that power.”
