Kangana Ranaut is one of the most outspoken Bollywood celebrities. She is famous for calling a spade a spade and never minces her words when speaking about pressing issues. She often speaks about various topics related to the country and society and is always well-informed and has an opinion to dish out.
However, this time around she didn’t just speak about it but took action as well. In the wake of the dastardly Pulwama attack, Kangana who is riding high on the success of her recent film Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi was planning a success bash but has now canceled it.

The success bash was supposed to happen tomorrow but Kangana showing solidarity to the 45 martyr’s families has canceled the party. She said, “Pakistan has not only violated our nation’s security they have also attacked our dignity by openly threatening and humiliating us, we need to take decisive actions or else our silence will be misunderstood for our cowardice. Bharat is bleeding today, killing of our sons is like a dagger in our gut, anyone who lectures about non-violence and peace at this time should be painted black, put on a donkey and slapped by everyone on the streets.”
Not only Kangana, but several Bollywood celebrities like Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra, and Salman Khan have condemned the terror attack. Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar canceled an invitation from Karachi Art Council to celebrate the former’s father Kaifi Azmi’s birth centenary in the wake of the Pulwama attacks. Shabana even went ahead to call a halt on all cultural exchanges between India and Pakistan too.

However, when quizzed on Shabana’s move to cancel the event, Kangana said, “People like Shabana Azmi calling for halt on cultural exchange, they are the ones who promote Bharat tere Tukade honge gangs.... why did they organize an event in Karachi in the first place when Pakistani artists have been banned after Uri attacks and now they are trying to save face. Film industry is full of such anti-nationals who boost enemies morals in many ways but right now is the time to focus on decisive actions... Pakistan ban is not the focus, Pakistan destruction is.”
