Kangana Ranaut Denies That She Eats Beef, Netizens Not Convinced, Dig Out Her Old Posts
It seems actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut’s political career will also be entangled in controversies like her acting journey. Kangana, who is campaigning for Lok Sabha polls from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, recently refuted claims of eating beef, reaffirming her commitment to a vegetarian lifestyle rooted in her identity as a ‘proud Hindu’. The clarification came following the remarks by Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar at a rally where he mentioned that she had been granted a BJP ticket despite previously stating on social media that she consumed beef.
In a statement shared on her Twitter account, Kangana Ranaut addressed the claims, calling them baseless and aimed at tarnishing her image. Netizens, however, are not satisfied with the actor’s clarification and have taken out an old tweet by the actress where she had written that there is no harm in eating beef.
She wrote, “I don’t consume beef or any other kind of red meat, it is shameful that completely baseless rumours are being spread about me, I have been advocating and promoting yogic and Ayurvedic way of life for decades now such tactics won’t work to tarnish my image. My people know me and they know that I am a proud Hindu and nothing can ever mislead them, Jai Shri Ram.”

One user wrote, “No real Hindu will ever eat or endorse beef like you did” while another one wrote, “Liar! Explain how you were openly supporting beef a few years ago.”
No real Sanatani will ever eat or endorse beef like you did 👇🏻
Himachal with 95% Hindu population should kick you out.
You will lose elections by over one lakh votes for sure.#KanganaRanaut pic.twitter.com/aM9tiOo7eP

Eating something is ur personal choice & space. It need not b discussed.
