The clash stems from remarks Kangana made online regarding young protesters.
Kangana had earlier labelled certain young protesters at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar protest as ‘generation gutter’.
She later clarified that she was not making a blanket statement about the protest at Jantar Mantar over the NEET-UG paper leak and had “specifically referred to some people or some women”.
The protest was led by the Cockroach Janata Party.
She said, “Those who call themselves cockroaches, and we say that cockroaches emerge from gutters, what is wrong with that? My point is simply this: if people label themselves as cockroaches, and we say the gutter is their home, why should they be offended? I certainly don’t consider myself a cockroach. If someone were to say I live in a gutter, I would deny it. But if someone claims to be a cockroach, then naturally, they would live in a gutter. Where else? But to claim that I was referring to all youth is simply not the case,” she said.
“If some young people use drugs, or if we discuss the current trend of addiction involving drugs, betting, gambling, or the dark web, addressing a specific segment of the youth doesn’t mean I was making a blanket statement about everyone. Did I say that all youth belong to the gutter? I specifically referred to some people or some women. So, how else should we address this?” she asked.
Weighing in on the controversy during a media interaction, Baba Ramdev criticised the actor-politician’s comments.
Kangana shared a screenshot of a news article quoting Baba Ramdev as saying, “What were her past deeds like, and what was her youth like?”
Kangana responded to the yog guru writing, “Baba ji, don’t daydream about my jawani or bedroom. One can only assume based on rumours and gossip. Atleast mujhe kabhi Supreme Court se fatkar nahi lagi for false/fraud efficacy claims based on hard facts, not some gossip or assumptions.”
She added, “So don’t give me character lessons. Tumse toh bahut zayada behtar hai mera character, no fraud detected here.”
Kangana’s reference to Ramdev and the Supreme Court relates to a 2024 case involving Patanjali’s misleading advertisements.
In 2024, Baba Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna tendered an unconditional apology to the Supreme Courtments. They expressed sincere regret for breaching previous court undertakings, promised not to repeat the lapse, and assured the bench that no similar medicinal claims or disparaging statements against modern medicine would be issued in the future
