Did Apurva Asrani call Kangana Ranaut a criminal?

15 Sep 2017

Just today in the morning we posted news of Apurva Asrani refusing to react to the latest tirade of Kangana Ranaut on a popular talk show on a news channel. The actress accused Apurva Asrani of unnecessarily creating a scene over not getting credit for Kanganas upcoming film Simran , which he wrote. Kangana Ranaut claimed that he was always going to get due credit for writing Simran and also says that it was all a publicity stunt from his side. Apurva Asrani however has now decided to open up on these shocking allegations. He made a series of tweets wherein he didnt take anybodys name but its obvious that hes responding to Kanganas claims. He raked up the issue of pseudo feminism and asked that if its fair that women transgress the limits of decency just because men also do the same? He hit back at these pseudo feminists and blamed them for cheering for a woman who commits a crime. He then asked whether these women are trying to understand the issue completely or are they being lenient towards Kangana Ranaut? He didnt stop at that and said that its strange that the pseudo feminists celebrate when a woman breaks the rule, but shame a man for doing the same. He finally signed off by saying writers being harassed is injustice and thats something that wont change despite Kangana Ranauts outspokenness. Looks like this explosive interview of Kangana Ranaut has ruffled quite a few feathers in Bollywood. It now remains to be seen how the others, targeted by Kangana, react, namely Aditya Pancholi, Adhyayan Suman and above all, Hrithik Roshan.Women who transgress the limits of decency & fair play by saying men did it, so why cant we? only compound the problem. https://twitter.com/hashtag/pseudofeminism?src=hash #pseudofeminism Apurva Asrani (@Apurvasrani) https://twitter.com/Apurvasrani/status/904939998499061760 September 5, 2017 As a gay man, I have suffered patriarchy all my life.
