Kangana Ranaut Called Twinkle Khanna A “Privileged Brat”
Recently, the talented actress was at it again as she lashed out on Twinkle Khanna who compared husbands to polythene bags.
In the old interview, which has now surfaced on social media, Twinkle was questioned about when she recognized herself as a feminist. Responding with humor, Twinkle shared that she reached this realization by looking back on her life. She credited her mother, veteran actor Dimple Kapadia, for teaching her from a young age that women are independent and don’t rely on men.
Twinkle had said, “We never spoke about feminism or equality or anything. But it was very clear that there was absolutely no need for a man. It would be very nice to have a man, like you would have a nice handbag. But even if you had a plastic bag it would do,” she said. “So I grew up with that notion and for a long time I felt that there wasn’t much use for them.”
Twinkle also said that men are weaker than women by nature. “They lose their hair, start wrapping the four strands, round and round, on their heads. Luckily for most women, they die 10-15 years before us. You have to feel a little sorry for them also,” Twinkle said. “So I had to walk backwards that perhaps we (women) are not superior but we are sort of equals. That has been my journey to feminism,” she added.
Kangana criticized Twinkle Khanna, labeling her as a privileged individual. Kangana questioned Twinkle’s understanding of feminism and her perspective on the matter. Kangana took to her official Instagram account and slammed Twinkle, she wrote:
“What are these privileged brats who call their men polythene bags, are they trying to be cool? Nepo kids born with silver spoon, given film careers on golden platters, couldn’t do justice to that for sure, least they could do find some joy and fulfilment in selflessness of motherhood that also seems like a curse in their case what exactly do they want to be? Vegetables? Is that feminism?”
