Kangana Ranaut’s Farmer Post Row Becomes A Study In Free Speech And Public Sensitivity
Public sensitivity is something we need to keep in constant check, otherwise public outrage comes as an aftermath.
Recall the incident when Kangana Ranaut got into a controversy over her "100 rupees" comment on the farmers' protest, and an elderly farmer woman from Bhatinda, Mahinder Kaur.
Ranaut allegedly made a remark noting that women like Mahinder Kaur are available for 100 rupees.
Following this, Mahinder Kaur filed a defamation complaint against Kangana Ranaut in January 2021. In 2022, a Bhatinda judicial court summoned Kangana Ranaut to appear.
The national award-winning actress attempted to quash the complaint, but the high court intervened, showcasing 'no merit'.
