Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has officially taken the plunge into politics. The Bharatiya Janata Party's 5th list of candidates for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections features Kangana's name alongside 111 other candidates. Kangana Ranaut will be contesting her first-ever election from her hometown of Mandi in Himachal Pradesh. The party has also fielded veteran actor Arun Govil, who played the character of Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar's 'Ramayan,' from Uttar Pradesh's Meerut.

Soon after the list was announced, people started reacting to the political party's decision to choose Kangana Ranaut as the candidate. Congress leader Supriya Shrinate also took to her Instagram and questioned this decision by BJP. The former journalist, while posting a picture of Kangana, wrote, “Kya Bhav chal raha hai Mandi mein koi batayega”. After this objectionable post, Kangana took to her X account and gave a befitting reply to Supriya.
