Mumbai: In a fresh war of words, actress Kangana Ranaut has described Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray as the worst product of nepotism and said her state Himachal Pradesh is the land of the Gods not ganja fields.
She was reacting to comments made by the CM at a rally in Mumbai. “People who have no means of livelihood in their home come to Mumbai and betray it. Calling Mumbai PoK is in fact the failure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He had said he would get back PoK into India,” Thackeray said on Sunday.
Reacting to this, Kangana said Thackeray had abused her in his speech by calling her namak haraam.
“As a Chief Minister, you have let down an entire State only because you are angry with a woman who is of your son’s age. You were very angry with me when I compared Mumbai with (Pok) after I was threatened because slogans of ‘Free Kashmir’ were raised there. Your ‘Sonia Sena’ had defended all that, that’s why I had compared it with PoK,” she said.
What I want to tell you is: governments come and go. You are just a government servant and the people of Maharashtra are not happy with you. Governments come and go but if a person loses respect, he can’t get it back, she added.
