Kangana Ranaut on allegations of going after married men: Ambitious women are blamed
"Outsiders deal with a lot of exploitation in this place, and that also happens in the parallel industries, like in Lokhandwala.

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.'

Kangana Ranaut breaks silence on claims of dating married men: 'When they hit on you...'
The actress said, 'When you are young and ambitious, and a married man with kids hits on you, it's you who are falling for someone in a relationship.' Kangana Ranaut began her Bollywood career in the year 2006 with Anurag Basu's Gangster. She became one of the finest actors of the industry but she forayed into politics and last year, said she would quit acting if she won the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections. Ranaut was quoted saying, 'The film world is a lie, everything there is fake. They create a very different environment. It is a glossy world like a fake bubble which is to attract the audience.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD And now, in an interview with Hauterrfly, the actress broke her silence on allegations that she has dated married men. Ranaut was linked with Hrithik Roshan and Aditya Pancholi, but both the actors denied the claims. The actress said, 'When you are young and ambitious, and a married man with kids hits on you, it's you who are falling for someone in a relationship.' She added, 'It's not the man's fault. People always find a way to blame the women in the situation. Look at the rape victims who get blamed for wearing certain types of clothes or being out late at night. All these are markers of the wrong mentality.' Kangana Ranaut on her hard times It was a very difficult and very harsh time. I was physically abused. I don't have to go into details. I felt trapped. You feel people might help you. But there are no free lunches. But when you are going, you fall for it. This man, who was my father's age, hit me hard on my head when I was 17. I started bleeding. I took out my sandal and hit his head hard, and he started to bleed too. I lodged an FIR against the man. Kangana Ranaut, who made her debut in 2006 with Gangster, went on to give several memorable films and bagged awards for her portrayals in Queen, Fashion, Manikarnika, Tanu Weds Manu Returns and others.

Kangana Ranaut says live-in relationships are not ‘women-friendly', has a message for Khushboo Patani
In July, Disha Patani's sister, Khusboo Patani, had spoken out against spiritual leader Aniruddhacharya's comments on women and live-in relationships. She had slammed the comments made by the spiritual leader, where he implied that women who are unmarried at 25 or older are usually promiscuous. In a new interview for Hauterrfly, actor and BJP MP from Mandi, Kangana Ranaut has weighed in on the debate, adding that live-in relationships are not 'women-friendly.' Kangana Ranaut has commented on live-in relationships and said that she does not support the idea of it. What Kangana said During the interaction, Kangana said, 'Marriages are very important in our society, and it is the promise that the man makes to stay loyal to his wife. Jis tarah se aaj kal baatein chal rahi hain regarding log live-in relationships (Nowadays there is a lot of talk on live-in relationships)… From what I have seen, these are not women-friendly things. Kal ko aap pregnant hote hain in a live-in… aap ka abortion kaun karayega? Aap sant, maharajaon ko gaaliyaan de rahe hain, unko cancel kar diya hai (When you are pregnant tomorrow, who will take you for an abortion? One is abusing the spiritual leaders and cancelling them). But as a big sister, I am telling you that it is not a woman-friendly thing.' When the host added that the court allows live-in relationships, Kangana said, 'Most laws are here to protect women… People say men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, and we can be modern. But take a look at the surveys and it is proven scientifically, where both men and women were asked to list the qualities they would like about their boyfriend/girlfriend and their husband/wife. The men had a different list, but the women had the same list for both. Men can compartmentalise, and women cannot. It is unlikely that a man will change after they go in a live-in with a woman.' The controversy on live-in relationships For the unversed, last month Disha Patani's sister, Khusboo Patani, had called out spiritual leader Aniruddhacharya's comments on women and live-in relationships. Khushboo said, 'He says girls who are above the age of 25 and stay in live-in relationships, woh 4 jagah mooh maar ke aati hai (they go from one person to another). If only he were around me, I would have made him understand the meaning of the words he has used against women." After Aniruddhacharya received backlash for his comments, he apologised but stated that he was referring to 'some women, not all.'
