Kangana Ranaut is currently awaiting the release of her upcoming film 'Emergency'. Ranaut, who is also a Member of Parliament, had some tension with Jaya Bachchan in the past, but it looks like she has decided to leave it behind. In a recent interview, Kangana talked about Jaya Bachchan and called her one of the most "dignified" women in the film industry.
In an interview with News18, Kangana Ranaut shared that Bachchan is a highly respected actor in the industry and stated that she feels very good about Jaya Bachchan representing the film industry in the Rajya Sabha. “Jaya Bachchan ji is a very reputed actor in our film industry. Honestly, she's known for her short temper, but at the same time, I'd like to give her the acknowledgment and due credit. In those times—you can imagine, in the 1970s, when women had to roast their skin under harsh lighting—she did films like 'Guddi'. She sent a message of women empowerment through that. And even after that… she's one of the most dignified women in the film industry. The way she carries herself in Rajya Sabha makes me feel very good that we have this kind of representation from the film industry,” Kangana said.
