Few People Who Have Come Out In Support Of Kangana Ranaut Following The Manikarnika Controversy
It is no secret that Kangana Ranaut is unhappy with Bollywood. Things were simmering from the time of the Hrithik Roshan controversy but post the release of Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi Kangana has made it a literally spew venom on Bollywood.
From alleging that people in Bollywood are ganging up against her and her film because she spoke about nepotism to saying things like ‘waat langa dungi’ and asking Alia to grow a spine and stop being Karan Johar’s puppet, it is safe to assume that Kangana does not have too many supporters left in Bollywood or outside, apart from her loyal band of fans.
With almost the entire world against her, she has found a few supporters in a few people. Here are the ones we are talking about.

Her co-star of Manikarnika, Ankita has been one of the few cast members who has maintained her strong support for Kangana throughout the controversy. In an interaction with the media, she said, “I have loved 'Manikarnika' and I have loved Kangana for what she is. Most of my scenes have been shot by her, and that's for sure. I respect her for that. I think I am becoming Jhalkaribai, and I am really guarding my Rani Laxmibai, because she is Rani Laxmibai... She has proved herself. I am playing my character here also in my real life. I am actually protecting Rani Laxmibai.”

Yet another Manikarnika co-star who has talked in support of Kangana has been Zeeshan Ayyub. Zeeshan was cast in the same role which Sonu Sood left midway because of his creative differences with Kangana when she took the reins as the director. In an interview, Zeeshan has said that he is happy with how the film turned out to be. He said that Kangana had clearly informed him about the role he was going to play and was a thorough professional. Talking about roles getting chopped, he further revealed that these things have happened to him a lot and although it is upsetting for an actor, in the end, it is the choice of the director due to various other reasons.

Kangana has found yet another supporter in the pioneer of #metoo movement in Bollywood Tanushree Dutta. In a recent statement she has said, “Besides being a powerhouse performer, she has truly set an example of someone who has made a unique and celebrated place for herself in an industry tough to conquer for an outsider. This Damsel has truly made it all the way despite all the distress; leaving the frat boys club of Bollywood and their dames twiddling their thumbs in abject contempt for her success.”
