Kangana Ranaut News: Kangana Ranaut speaks on ‘Slapgate’ Oscar: Actress calls Will Smith a ‘bigda hua Sanghi’ as she, shares meme to support claim

Everyone has weighed in on Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars by now and adding to that sea of ​​reactions and opinions is Kangana Ranaut. The Bollywood actress recently used a meme to describe how she and Smith both have a penchant for trouble, and called the ‘Men In Black’ actor a ‘bigda hua Sanghi’ (a rowdy Sanghi /spoiled) like her.

In the meme, which is a collage of four photos, Smith can be seen praying in one, posing with a spiritual leader in another, and sitting on the banks of a sacred river during a Hindu religious ceremony, while the final photo documents the Oscar slap incident.

“Sanghi” for the uninitiated is what members of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or RSS, a right-wing organization and its affiliates are sometimes referred to as. However, in a more general sense, it is a term used to describe those who find their socio-political as well as religious ideology aligned with the right-wing group(s).

Kangana Ranaut has had a fiery presence on social media over the past few years, and the actress has also been suspended from social media platform, Twitter, for repeatedly breaking their rules, especially those relating to the Site’s ‘Hateful Conduct and Abusive Behaviour’ Policy. The actress, however, has shown no inclination to slow down with her social media posts. She often clashes with Bollywood biggies and famous actresses whom she had called out for promoting nepotism on social media. Ranaut also uses his social media presence to talk about several political and social issues, which are often controversial, and serve as fodder for newspaper headlines. His remark about Will Smith’s slapgate is just one of those controversial statements.

Smith’s misconduct with Chris Rock is currently under formal investigation by the Academy. On Oscar night, when Rock took the stage to announce a category, the comedian took the opportunity to crack a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. He made fun of his baldness, which is caused by the autoimmune disease known as alopecia, and while Pinkett Smith rolled her eyes and let the joke slip, her husband, Will Smith, angrily huffed on the stage and slapped Rock. He further yelled at the comedian and warned him never to take his wife’s name again.

Smith, however, regretted his outburst, and while picking up the Best Actor award for his role in ‘King Richard’, the actor used his victory speech to apologize to Rock and the Academy for his misconduct. The 53-year-old also took to his Instagram profile and once again issued a public apology to Rock for his “offline” act.
