The star who never minces words was asked at an event on Thursday night, to share her thoughts on the same, to which she said, "It is absolutely wrong, but I feel it is not something which is very surprising. When my sister was in school, she faced an acid attack from a student and now when I am in a professional environment, a superstar is trying to put me behind bars. So, this is very common that happens in our society. I feel we should not attack individuals, we should attack patriarchy and chauvinism. For individuals, we can call them out and say whatever you are doing is not right."
"But I feel this is not restricted only to boys, it implies to girls as well, so we have to attack that viewpoint and we are doing it whether with our work, speech or films. And that is why I feel films are an important medium because we as an industry can reach out to people only through our films," she added.

The actress further elaborated saying that she has her own set of ideas and opinions about the current situation and that she was sitting on the fence in many situations and that joining the 'Deepika Bachao' campaign lead by someone who "character assassinated" was one of them.

I am not one of those who will manipulate, I will answer every question. If I answer also people have a problem and if I don't answer then also people have a problem. I am not someone who will go round and round. If you ask me a question, I will give you an answer, I don't understand what to say or not to say then! The best solution would be not to call me for interviews, so everybody is quiet, and the problem will be solved."
Kangana Ranaut gives her take on extra-marital affairs
When questioned why strong and successful women fall for married men, Kangana said, “Well, you have to add ‘young’ to successful and strong. When you’re young, you tend to believe the sob story of a married man when he tells you ‘my wife beats me’. If a married man, who is persuading me, gets a minute alone with me, he will say, my wife is this evil bitch and I am this poor person’ and how the one who is sitting in front of him is his saviour. Women have to stop falling for this bulls**t, this crap. This is not the truth at all. Do you think I’ll buy that now? No way. I have not yet met a happy married man in my life. No matter what the age is. At some point, post 25 years of age, you don’t buy this. But when you’re between 15 and 25 the natural tendency of a young woman is to fall for someone who could be an ‘ideal husband’ forgetting that he’s already a husband."
Not to miss, Kangana has confessed that she is not looking for love as an artiste needs to be in love forever.
Kangana Ranaut opens up on the “frivolous nature” of social media

I prepare my character's graph in a linear pattern and when I saw the film, Vishal sir explained why he cut those scenes," Kangana said at a special ‘Rangoon’ event on Friday.
"Of course, it was a very legitimate thing to do. But when I got to know several top-notch scenes of my graph have been cut, all my hopes were shattered. I thought now my work will be so-so, it won't be appreciated that much. But despite that people are loving it. I am very happy," she added.
