Targeting the actor, NCP spokesperson Nawab Malik said that Kangana Ranaut is talking too much after an excess dose of “Malana cream”, a kind of hashish that is named after Malana valley in Himachal Pradesh. Nawab Mali quoted “We strongly condemned his statement, which insulted lakhs of freedom fighters, those who have sacrificed their lives. From Gandhiji to other freedom fighters who waged a long battle for freedom, all have been insulted. We demand that her Padma Shri be revoked. She should be booked for insulting freedom fighters.” 

Complaint filed by Congress:

On the other hand, the Congress leader and former state minister Naseem Khan filed a complaint at the Sakinaka police station in Mumbai against the actress. Khan said “Ranaut’s Padma Shri award should be taken back as she has insulted the freedom struggle and freedom fighters. It is an insult to the award that is being given to her. Her irresponsible statement amounts to sedition.”

Another complaint seeking action by AAP:
