Kangana Ranaut had refused to sign the petition by Shabana Azmi for Deepika’s protection. At a recent event Kagana Ranaut spoke about the whole issue and said, fighting is the survival instinct. “Fighting is obviously the survival instinct. It is survival of the fittest. It is not something that people are not familiar with. So, till the person is alive, our hearts also have to fight in order to beat, and you know what happens when that fight is over, the person dies, so fighting is important.”
Talking about the threats that were received by the 'Padmavati' actress Deepika Padukone, Kangana said that everyone should stick together and support each other during such situations, “Whatever is happening around us, we all need to stick together. Whether individually or together if we can do something to support our colleagues, we should. Our full support is with our colleagues.”
The ‘Queen’ actress even talked about her sister Rangoli’s life, when she was attacked and she also criticized, but also said that it is normal in society, “I condemn it. It is extremely wrong but it should not surprise people because like everyone knows that a man threw acid on my sister when she was in school or now that I am in a professional environment, a superstar tries to put me in jail. So, this is common in our society. So, you want to attack an individual or chauvinism, patriarchy or our orthodox thinking? We should attack these things. We can call out individuals. We can say that they are wrong and this is not restricted to men, even women are a part of this. We have to attack the mindset, and we will do that. We are doing it whether it is through our work, speech or our films. That’s why films are a very important medium. So, to say that one should not be sentimental about it (movies) is also wrong because if we can reach out to people it is through films.”
