The seven-year-old war of words between two popular Bollywood actresses—Kangana Ranaut and Taapsee Pannu—has once again erupted with full intensity on social media. Recently, after Taapsee Pannu’s comment in an interview regarding the difference of opinion and upbringing between the two, actress and MP Kangana Ranaut got angry on social media and again called Taapsee a ‘cheap copy’ and ‘B-grade film girl’. However, instead of giving any long statement on this sharp attack, Taapsee Pannu said only two words-“Hence proved.” (Hence proved)By sharing a mysterious post without naming anyone, the controversy has become viral on the internet.
Beginning of latest controversy: Taapsee’s interview and Kangana’s anger
In an interview given to a media channel during the promotion of her upcoming film ‘Gandhari’, when Taapsee Pannu was asked a question about her old tension with Kangana Ranaut, she said, “I have never met him. I haven’t met him when this controversy started and I haven’t even met him today. My opinion of him reflects my upbringing, my style of conversation and my way of looking at things and his opinion reflects his upbringing. The public can judge for themselves by seeing who comes from where and at what level.”
Kangana Ranaut got very angry at Taapsee’s ‘parenting’ comment. Kangana shared a long note on Instagram Stories, writing that some people only resort to the headlines of her name to promote her upcoming B-grade films and question the upbringing of her parents from a prestigious Rajput zamindar family. Kangana sarcastically wrote, “A cheap copy is in the field again… I pity your efforts.” However, soon after the controversy escalated, Kangana deleted her stories from Instagram.
Taapsee Pannu’s concise answer in 2 words
Immediately after Kangana Ranaut’s aggressive post and her deleting the stories, Taapsee Pannu posted just a short line on her official social media handle without taking anyone’s name-“Hence proved.” (Hence proved).
Taapsee’s precise two-word reply was indicating that Kangana’s sharp and personal response had completely proved her claim that there was a huge difference in the values and way of behaving between the two. Social media users are praising Taapsee’s calm and sarcastic reply.
This series of ‘cheap copy’ started from 2019
This bitterness between the two actresses is not new, but its roots go back to the year 2019:
-
‘Judgmental Hai Kya’ controversy of 2019: Taapsee Pannu had praised the trailer of Kangana’s film but did not write Kangana’s name separately. On this, Kangana’s sister Rangoli Chandel took Taapsee to task on social media and publicly called her ‘Sasti Copy’ for the first time.
-
Nepotism era of 2020: During the controversies that arose after the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, Kangana had even called Taapsee Pannu and Swara Bhaskar ‘B-grade actresses’ and ‘needy outsiders’.
-
Taapsee’s dignified stance: Taapsee had made it clear in many old interviews that she considers Kangana a great actress, but demeaning the struggle of another woman is against her principles.
Fans divided on social media, ‘Gandhari’ in discussion
After this new controversy, fans of both the actresses have come face to face on social media platforms. While Kangana’s supporters are calling it a natural statement given in defense of her family, neutral viewers and Taapsee’s fans are considering it as a ‘classic and dignified’ answer given by Taapsee. Talking about the work front, Taapsee Pannu will soon be seen in the struggling role of a blind mother in her action-drama film ‘Gandhari’ to be released on Netflix.
