Kangana's 'Islamist' Remark Sparks Online Speculation Around Sonakshi Sinha
Sonakshi Sinha Zaheer Iqbal Controversy: Sonakshi Sinha, who is married to actor Zaheer Iqbal, has been vocal. She openly supported the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP)-led protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar last month.
The protest over the NEET paper leak ended with the resignation of former Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
Ranaut repeated her claim that some Hindu women become more politically active after starting relationships with "Islamist" men, saying they often become what she called "kattar panthis" or "leftists."
Kangana Ranaut Awakened Hindu Statement
Kangana Ranaut Sonakshi Sinha Controversy: Ranaut said there are many Hindu women in the film industry whom she and others know well.
She claimed that many of them did not have strong political or religious views at first and stayed neutral, which she said is common for young people.
When these women enter relationships, either through marriage or friendship, with "Islamist" men, their political and religious views become more defined.
Ranaut claimed they often become more hardline or left-leaning, but added that she does not see this as a problem because the Constitution allows everyone to choose their own religion or beliefs.

She said she used to live differently, but now wants to embrace a more defined, awakened Hindu identity.
Ranaut also spoke about her past stands, such as opposing item songs, pay gaps, and nepotism, as well as her boycott of powerful heroes.
She said she used to be a moderate Hindu but now wants to be an "awakened Hindu."
She explained that she wants to align with the BJP and RSS ideologies and go through what she called a personal ideological "conversion."

Ranaut said the screenshot showing her "like" was fabricated. Still, she wondered why a certain woman from the film industry had started dressing like a "jebkatra."

She also accused the unnamed actor of acting and speaking like a "jebkatra" and supporting what she called "gutterchap" behaviour by protesters.
Ranaut also wrote that many fake news stories were spreading, including the fake screenshot of her supposed "like."
She said she never body-shamed anyone but noticed that an actress's style and way of speaking had changed a lot.

She added that the actress used to dress and speak elegantly and offered to help with styling if needed.
Many users on X believed Ranaut's comments were aimed at Sonakshi Sinha. One user said Ranaut had indirectly called Sinha "gutter-class" and a pickpocket, and praised her for challenging liberals.
Another user posted Ranaut's Instagram message next to Sonakshi's photo and suggested the remarks were about her, criticising Sonakshi Sinha for allegedly liking a cryptic Instagram post that accused the actor of double standards.

According to the user, the post questioned why Sinha spoke about the CJP protest but stayed silent on the Jharkhand paper leak while on vacation.
The user also praised Ranaut for what they called her courage and expressed continued support for the Rowdy Rathore actor, who has openly supported Sonam Wangchuk and the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest through social media posts.
On July 21, she shared photos from the 'Chalo Sansad' march and commented on the violence that happened during the protest.
Sonakshi Sinha's post came a day after clashes broke out during the march in central Delhi.
As protesters tried to march to Parliament on the first day of the Monsoon Session, police used tear gas, lathi charges, and anti-riot vehicles to disperse crowds at places like Jantar Mantar, Shastri Bhawan, Rail Bhawan, and Connaught Place.
Earlier, Kangana called Gen-Z protesters "Generation Gutter," a remark that quickly became controversial.
Since then, she has used social media to single out young men and women who she says insulted the government and shouted anti-Modi slogans during the protest, describing them as rude and uncivilised people who, in her view, should be reprimanded by society and the courts.
