Actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut has now joined the ongoing exchange of comments between veteran Bollywood actor Naseeruddin Shah and versatile artist Piyush Mishra. In this controversy that started over political neutrality and protest stance, Kangana has directly slammed Naseeruddin Shah by calling him a 'fox'.

This information was reported in a report by NDTV on Wednesday (August 11).

Kangana's attack on Naseeruddin

Taking the context of an old comment by Naseeruddin Shah, Kangana alleged that he took a stand for another country even after eating the country's food.

Kangana said that she considers it more honorable to be a loyal 'dog' than to be a 'fox' like Naseeruddin Shah. She claims that loyalty and loyalty have become rare these days.

Kangana wrote in her Instagram story that every person is loyal to some person, institution or country. She said that she feels proud to fight for the protection of the country from which she eats.

What did Naseeruddin Shah say?

Earlier, Naseeruddin Shah commented on the movement of students and job seekers in Jharkhand alleging irregularities in the recruitment exam.

Students and job seekers have been protesting in Jharkhand since July 25 alleging irregularities in the recruitment exam. Regarding the silence of Bollywood stars on the movement, Naseeruddin said that stars open their mouths on something only when their conscience agrees.

At that time, she also mentioned a common proverb. The essence of her statement was that a dog cannot bark if it has a bone in its mouth; it makes noise only when the bone falls out of its mouth.

Kangana's response to that comment

Based on Naseeruddin's 'dog' comment, Kangana attacked him this time.

He claims that he views his position with pride from a place of loyalty to the country. On the other hand, Kangana criticized Naseeruddin Shah by questioning his position.

According to Kangana, nowadays even the word 'dog' can be seen as a compliment, because loyalty and loyalty are very rare. According to her, it is better to be a loyal 'dog' than to be a 'fox' like Naseeruddin Shah.

Tensions over the movement in Jharkhand

The movement of students and job seekers continues in Ranchi, Jharkhand, over allegations of irregularities in the recruitment exam. The protesters are holding various programs and demanding an investigation and resolution of the allegations of irregularities in the exam.

On Monday, the police used lathi-charge to disperse the students' procession during the Jharkhand Assembly campaign. The report mentions that water cannons were also used to control the situation.

There has also been a reaction in the political arena regarding this movement. The BJP has also taken the field on the issue. Meanwhile, Naseeruddin Shah's comments on the movement and the stand of the stars have sparked a new controversy. This time, Kangana Ranaut's comments have also joined the controversy.
