After being embroiled in an ugly war of words on social media once, actor-director Kangana Ranaut and singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh have locked horns once again, but this time at the box office. Interestingly, Kangana’s Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, helmed by Manoj Tapadia, and Diljit’s Main Vaapas Aaunga, directed by Imtiaz Ali, hit the screens together on Friday, June 12, giving their once-fuming public feud a new dimension.
However, during a recent interview, Kangana maintained that she held no personal grudges against Diljit, and what happened previously was merely two people sparring over differing opinions. Mentioning that she hasn’t even met him in real life so far, the four-time National Award-winning actor noted that she wasn’t opposed to the possibility either. “We are not against each other. We just had contradictory opinions about a certain event,” she told NDTV.

“I’ve got nothing against that guy. We’ve never even met in life,” she maintained. When asked whether she would be open to meeting him personally in the future, Kangana replied, “Why not?” Would she go the extra mile and text him if she enjoyed his performance in Main Vaapas Aaunga? Kangana replied with a laugh, “That’s too much, na?”

Diljit slammed her for misidentifying the elderly woman. Kangana quickly went personal, calling Diljit “Karan Johar’s chamcha.” In retaliation, the singer-actor accused her of lacking “tameez” (basic courtesy). Kangana later alleged that celebrities like Diljit disappeared after provoking farmers. Diljit in turn mocked her attempts at maligning him.
The 78-year-old woman, Mahinder Kaur, from Bahadurgarh Jandian village in Punjab, subsequently filed a defamation case against Kangana, and the actor eventually had to apologise to her. Kaur, however, refused to accept the apology and said, “She has never met me. I will not forgive her.”
She told The Tribune, “She is a big actress and political leader, while I am a small farmer. Yet she has made me come to the court at this age. She should realise how much her visit costs the state exchequer and the trouble caused to the public because of it. She says her remark was misinterpreted, but it’s not true.”
