While Bollywood celebrities and Kangana Ranaut cannot see eye to eye on most occasions, on Wednesday, when the actor’s office in Mumbai was partially demolished by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), there were some who came out in support of the actor. Actors such as Dia Mirza, Renuka Shahane, Sonal Chauhan and Anupam Kher took to social media to express their anger about the incident. Kangana had also voiced her anger in a series of tweets, calling it the ‘death of democracy’. Here are what some other celebrities have to say about this demolition drive.


Gulshan Devaiah, Actor
Kangana is a high performing actor and has a high performing respectable career. What she has done for the female actors and the box office success she has got is tremendous. She deserves the respect regardless of what she is saying right now. However, a lot of things that she has said are very insincere especially about the film industry and other things, and that is also the truth.


Kavita Kaushik, Actor
We are living in times where everyone is just fighting. No one should resort to violence of any kind. This seems like a political fight between two very strong parties. Kangana is not in politics right now, but she is a very strong, successful and powerful woman and she is playing it well

Kubbra Sait, actor
This is not a human on human war. It’s become even more lousy to call it a war against patriarchy or war against Kangana. I can stand for Kangana, and I can also stand for something else that I believe in. What’s happening to her is not right. No one has shied away from speaking, we don’t agree with the reasons. it’s not easy to make or break a house. What if it happened to me? I am not okay with it happening to anyone.

Nikhil Dwivedi, Actor-producer
I hope that the law were followed during the demolition. How do we speculate that it wasn’t followed? I am ignorant of the procedure. It seemed wrong but I can’t be sure. But it didn’t make for great optics.


Meera Chopra, Actor
Whatever Kangana said was her personal opinion, but demolishing her office is not justified. It’s a complete challenge for democracy also. In a way, they are saying ‘tum hamare khilaaf kuchh bologe toh hum yeh karenge’. A government can’t expect everybody to love them. Ek aurat se revenge le rahe ho? What happened to the state being a bigger person and letting it go?

Onir, Filmmaker
I might not agree with what Kangana says but what BMC has done is misuse of power. She has the right to support or be against the government. Now, those who have no problems with what happened at JNU earlier this year, will talk about this. The whole atmosphere has become toxic. Everyone is so full of hate that people just want to justify things which should not be justified. Regardless of your political beliefs, one needs to be able to differentiate between the right and the wrong.
