Kangana Ranaut’s blunt interview with the most known journalist from the nation Rajat Sharma created havoc of headlines. The facts she revealed during the interview shocked the entire nation. One fact was, when she asked about her battle and emotional war with Hrithik Roshan and if she was not able to handle the situation, why she never took help of women commission.
To this question she responded, “He (Hrithik) threatened to expose my pictures and videos if I did not apologise. I was working with Vishal Bhardwaj at the time. Vishal said I would be mentally disturbed if he actually makes such pictures public. He suggested I should go to the commission and request them even if you don’t interfere in the entire case, they must take action on this particular threat. My sister Rangoli called up Gurmeet Chadha (who is the head in Mumbai) and she was excited to take up the ‘high-profile’ case. Two days later, I got a call from Rakesh Roshan’s office. Kitne bikau log hain, women commission se to nafrat ho gai mujhe, ye log dhongi hain saare.”
Now, Mahila Congress’ ex-VP Gurpreet Kaur Chadha has told her side of the story to a leading tabloid.”At least get my name right. It’s Gurpreet, not Gurmeet,” said the former general secretary of the Mumbai Regional Mahila Congress. “When I referred to Rakeshji [Roshan] and Hrithik as ‘bade log’, I didn’t intend to intimidate her [Kangana] like she is now suggesting. It was a simple comment,” added Chadha.
Depicting more light , Chadha stated, “Kangana and Rangoli [Ranaut’s sister] wanted to amicably sort out the issue and reached out to me because Rakeshji is like family. When I connected with him, he said he’d be willing to communicate only if Kangana apologised. When I told Rangoli about this, she said, ‘The case is with the Cyber Crime Cell; they will pursue it.'”
Chadha also added that she had requested the Ranauts to give a written complaint on the matter. “There was no further communication with them. Rangoli stopped answering my calls,” added Chadha.
“Kangana owes me an apology. I will send her a notice. I could even sue her for defamation but I wouldn’t do that to another woman,” Gurpreet told the tabloid demanding an apology from the actor.
Interesting fact is, Sheetal Mahatra, president of the Mumbai Regional Mahila Congress, told the tabloid that she had no clue about the case – “Gurpreet has not been active for the past year because of personal engagements. I was never informed about this case. After watching the episode [interview], I sent Kangana a text message, but I’m yet to hear from her.”
