Actor Kangana Ranaut, who often makes feckless remarks has recently claimed that she commands equal love and respect as mega superstar Amitabh Bachchan in the film industry.
The actor, who recently joined politics, is presently contesting as the Bharatiya Janata Party's candidate for the Mandi Lok Sabha seat in Himachal Pradesh.
Kangana, during one of her speeches at election rally, compared her influence and status in the film industry to that of veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan.
While talking about the same, she said, “Sara desh hairaan hai, ki wo Kangana, chahe Rajasthan chali jaye, chahe mai West Bengal chali jau, chahe mai Delhi chali jau, chahe mai Manipur chali jau, aisa lagta hai ki mano itna pyaar aur itna sammaan, Mein daave se keh sakti hu ke Amitabh Bachchan ji ke baad aaj kisiko industry me milta hai to wo mujhe milta hai. (The whole country is surprised, whether I go to Rajasthan, West Bengal, New Delhi, or I go to Manipur, it feels like there is so much love and respect. I can confidently say that after Amitabh Bachchan, if anyone gets such love and respect in the industry, it’s me.)
The video of her speech has since gone viral, which has garnered various reactions from netizens, mostly sarcastic remarks about her comparison to one of Bollywood’s biggest icons.

“This is the next level of self-obsession. After delivering flop after flop, Kangana Ranaut compared herself to Amitabh Bachchan. Nobody has ever insulted Amit Ji like this before,” another user from a verified X account said.
