Kangana Ranaut shares tragedy that shook her family's faith in medical system: 'Hospitals were banned for us'

Synopsis Kangana Ranaut revealed a tragic family history. Her parents lost their first son, Hero, shortly after birth. The family blamed medical negligence. This led to a ban on hospital births. Kangana also spoke about patriarchal restrictions she faced. Relatives criticized her behavior. She felt isolated. Kangana's recent film, Emergency, did not perform well at the box office. Agencies , Kangana was last seen in the political drama 'Emergency'. She essayed the role pf Indira Gandhi. Kangana Ranaut, one of the most recognized faces in Indian cinema, hails from Bhambla, a small town located in the Mandi district of Himachal Pradesh. She grew up as the second child in her family, alongside her elder sister Rangoli and their younger brother. However, in a recent conversation with Hauterrfly, the actress disclosed a painful family chapter that preceded her birth. Before Rangoli, her parents had a son named Hero, who survived for only ten to Kangana's account, the family believes that the death of Hero resulted from medical negligence. Her father had named the baby Hero, but his short life was cut off under distressing circumstances. Despite being a healthy newborn weighing 3.5 kilograms and showing no signs of complications, he passed away just days after birth. Kangana explained that her mother attributed this tragedy to hospital staff mishandling the cutting of the umbilical cord. The loss devastated her parents, and her grandmother soon imposed a household rule forbidding childbirth in hospitals. Following this tragedy, childbirth practices in Kangana's family changed entirely. Her grandmother declared that all future deliveries would take place at home. As a result, Kangana's mother went on to give birth to three more children, and her aunt delivered twice, all within the same house and even in the same room. This generational decision stemmed from a fear of repeating the trauma caused by what the family believed to be medical oversight."My mother believes it was the carelessness of the hospital staff that killed her son, as they cut his umbilical cord incorrectly. After that, my grandmother took over and declared that none of us would be born in a hospital. After this incident, my mother conceived three more times and my aunt twice, and all of us were born in the same house, in the same room. Hospitals were banned for us," she revealed. Beyond this personal history, Kangana also highlighted how gender bias shaped her childhood experiences. She revealed that patriarchy ran deep in her family culture. As she recalled, while her parents today feel uneasy about those attitudes, back then it was common for relatives to ridicule and restrict girls. She remembered being told to remain indoors or criticized for not learning certain skills, with relatives warning that her behavior could jeopardize her elder sister's chances of marriage. These repeated comments strained her connection with her siblings and left her with a sense of isolation during her formative to her professional front, Kangana was last seen in the film Emergency, a political drama where she portrayed former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Despite its ambitious subject, the film managed to collect only around ₹21 crore at the box office, marking it as a commercial disappointment.

Kangana Ranaut slams live-in relationships, calls dating app users ‘neech' and apps ‘gutter of society'

Kangana Ranaut slams live-in relationships, calls dating app users 'neech' and apps 'gutter of society' In today's digital era, where people have more followers and friends on social media than in real life, technology-driven relationships and dating apps have become a common way to interact and find partners. However, recently, actor and politician Kangana Ranaut shared her opinion on online dating and strongly criticised it. According to Kangana, dating apps are of declining value in modern society. Recently, in an interview, she spoke about her views on marriage, live-in relationships, and the modern culture of online dating, which has created a buzz online. Kangana, who was last seen playing the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the film Emergency, said that men and women have different ways to process emotions. She believes that men can compartmentalise their emotions, but women cannot, despite the education and empowerment. Speaking of marriage, Kangana shared that she believes that marriage is an important institution to represent loyalty and responsibility. However, she had strong opposition. Kangana Ranaut on dating app culture: Speaking of dating apps, she labelled it as 'gutter.' she further states that for her, a dating app is in a derogatory category, and she cannot even imagine being with someone who uses a dating app. She also emphasises that dating apps promote validation-seeking and a lack of confidence. She said, 'You won't find people like me on dating apps. You'll only find losers there, the people who haven't achieved anything in their lives,' she said. 'If you haven't been able to meet anyone in the office or through your parents and relatives, and you've ended up on a dating app, imagine what sort of character you are.' Expanding her criticism, she described dating culture as crude and problematic. 'Everybody has a need, be it financial, physical, or anything else… Every woman and man has needs, but how do we address them? That is the question. Do we do it elegantly, or do we do it more crudely, like har raat nikal jaana (leaving home every night) in search of someone? That is what dating is now, and it's a horrible situation.'
