Actor Kangana Ranaut’s Twitter account has been permanently suspended after she posted a series of tweets reacting to the violence that took place in West Bengal following the Assembly election results. 

Twitter said that the actor has been found to repeatedly violate the platform’s rules. We’ve been clear that we will take strong enforcement action on behaviour that has the potential to lead to offline harm. The referenced account has been permanently suspended for repeated violations of Twitter Rules specifically our Hateful Conduct policy and Abusive Behaviour policy. We enforce the Twitter Rules judiciously and impartially for everyone on our service, said a Twitter Spokesperson.

The actor, in her last tweet, seemed to urge Prime Minister Narendra Modi to tame West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee using his Virat Roop from the early 2000s in Bengal. The actor has also demanded the president’s rule in Bengal after the Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress made a landslide victory with 212 of the 292 seats, defeating BJP who emerged as the main opposition party with 77 seats under its belt. 

Soon after her tweets, the netizens sparked outrage and called for action against the actor. The angry users posted vitriolic comments in response to her tweets.

This is not the first time, Ranaut has been penalised by the social media platform. Earlier this year, the actor passed an explosive remark against Amazon Prime Video series Tandav, in her tweet, saying it was time to take the makers’ heads off for hurting religious sentiments. Thereafter, restrictions were imposed on her tweets.

The actor has recently posted a rant on her Instagram account in reaction to Bengal election results, in which she spoke about disturbing news, videos and photos from Bengal of people being murdered, gang-raped and their houses being burnt in a violence broke out after election results. She criticized the government she supports for not doing more than dharnas in response to the clashes.

The much-anticipated Bollywood superhero film Krrish 4, starring Hrithik Roshan, has hit another roadblock as director Siddharth Anand and his banner Marflix have exited the project. Reports indicate that the film’s budget, reportedly touching ₹700 crore, has made it difficult for production houses to move forward with the project.

Adding to the uncertainty, Rakesh Roshan, who directed the previous installments of the Krrish franchise, has decided to step away from directing the film, choosing to “pass on the baton” to a new director.

Production struggles continue

Krrish 4 has faced multiple delays over the years, and with the exit of Siddharth Anand, the situation has become even more complicated. Hrithik Roshan, who had wanted Anand to direct, is now left looking for a new team to take the project forward.

Although there are reports suggesting that the film’s ₹700 crore budget is the reason for the hurdles, another source has denied these claims, stating that the “astronomical figures doing the rounds are completely untrue.”

New production plans in motion

While Marflix will no longer be part of the film, FilmKraft, the production house owned by the Roshan family, is reportedly looking for a new studio to back the film. With no director or confirmed production house in place, it remains to be seen how and when the film will move forward.

For now, Krrish 4 remains in limbo, with fans eagerly waiting for an official update on its future.

Kangana Ranaut’s latest film, Emergency, has taken the top spot on Netflix India, making it the #1 trending movie on the platform. The film, which portrays the events of the 1975 Emergency in India with Ranaut playing former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, has garnered widespread praise.

However, when a social media user suggested that the film should be India’s entry for the Oscars, Ranaut had a bold response, dismissing the Academy Awards as “silly.”

Kangana Ranaut’s take on the Oscars

A fan on Twitter wrote, “#EmergencyOnNetflix should go for the Oscars from India. Kangana, what a film.” In response, Ranaut reposted the tweet, stating:

“But America wouldn’t like to acknowledge its real face, how they bully, suppress, and arm-twist developing nations. It’s been exposed in #Emergency. They can keep their silly Oscar. We have National Awards.”

Her remarks come amid growing recognition for the film, which she directed, produced, and starred in.

Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta praises ‘Emergency’

Despite initial skepticism, filmmaker Sanjay Gupta was highly impressed by the film. Sharing his thoughts, he tweeted:

“Today I watched EMERGENCY by @KanganaTeam. Very frankly I wasn’t planning to as I had prejudged it. I am so glad that I was wrong. What a fantastic film by Kangana—both performance & direction. Top Notch & World Class.”

Ranaut acknowledged his praise, calling for the industry to shed its “hate and prejudices” and judge films based on merit rather than preconceived notions.

Ranaut on her performance in ‘Emergency’

Many fans have lauded her acting in the film, with some calling it her best performance to date, surpassing her acclaimed roles in Queen, Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Fashion, and Thalaivi.

In response, Ranaut said:

“People are calling my acting in #Emergency amazing and my best ever. Could I surpass Queen, TWM2, Fashion, Thalaivi? Watch #Emergency and find out.”

Emergency tops Netflix charts

Released on March 15, 2025, Emergency has climbed to the #1 spot on Netflix India’s movies list, ahead of Ajay Devgn’s Azaad and Naga Chaitanya-Sai Pallavi’s Thandel.

Apart from Kangana Ranaut, the film features a stellar cast including Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, Milind Soman, and the late Satish Kaushik. Produced by Zee Studios and Manikarnika Films, the film offers a dramatic retelling of the 21-month Emergency period imposed in 1975.

Saira Rahman, the estranged wife of renowned composer AR Rahman, has sent her wishes for a swift recovery after he was hospitalized due to dehydration. She emphasized that while they are separated, they are not officially divorced, and she asked the media to refrain from labeling her as his ex-wife.

In a show of unwavering support during this challenging time, Saira also mentioned her own recovery from surgery. Recently, she faced a medical emergency herself but remains committed to standing by her former partner. Through a statement from her lawyers, Vandana Shah and Associates, she expressed, “AR is in my prayers, and I wish him the best of health.

Accompanying her written statement was an audio message in which she shared, “Hi everyone, this is Saira Rahman here. I wish him a speedy recovery, and I received news that he experienced chest pain and underwent an angiogram.”

By the grace of God, she continued in her message, “he is recovering well now.” Saira stressed, “I want to clarify that we are not officially divorced; we are still husband and wife, just separated because I haven’t been well for the past two years and didn’t wish to burden him with stress.”

She made a heartfelt request to the media, saying, “Please do not refer to me as his ex-wife… We are currently separated, but my prayers for him remain constant.” Furthermore, she urged his family not to add to his stress and to take good care of him.
