Abhi Bola Abhi Folk on Kangana Ranaut's 'Drug Addict' Issue: Said, 'I never said that, I wanted to understand the mentality of alcoholics, it was just acting'

An old statement of Kangana Ranaut, who is making headlines due to the growing demand for a ban on the film 'Emergency', in which she described herself as a drug addict, has surfaced. However, Kangana Ranaut backed down when she was recently told about this addiction. He clearly said that I have never said that I am a drug addict. Later, when he was shown his statement, he said that he had used the drug for method acting. Kangana believes that instead of focusing on drug addiction, one should learn from the fact that despite getting money at a young age, she did not become an item girl or a high society prostitute. In an interview to Filmfare in October 2013, Kangana Ranaut said that when she turned 17, she went to a rave party to see what happens there. After this, Kangana said in an interview given to Hindustan Times in September 2020, I ran away from my home, became a film star within a few years and then became a drug addict. These statements of Kangana were mentioned by her in an interview given to Lalantop. However, Kangana categorically denied being addicted to drugs. He backed off and said, I would never call myself a drug addict. Further, when told that she made these statements herself, the actress clarified, “Look, what happens is, when you're in your family, you're in a very protective environment.” Family protects you. But when you are completely free, you start exploring the world. We try to understand what is the matter. If you are a free spirit, you go everywhere that is scary, that is attractive, that has curiosity, that has darkness, that has beauty. You are drawn to such places. I was an alcoholic in 'Gangster', a bipolar schizophrenic in 'Wo Lamhe', a cocaine addict in fashion. I had a phase where I was doing all these things as a method actor, you're so young you don't judge anyone. Kangana said in an interview that in the fashion film, she played the role of a girl who was a drug addict and was found lying on the road. He took drugs to understand the character and his state of mind. She did not experiment with any kind of medicine, she met some people with whom she did research. Kangana Ranaut's film 'Emergency' was scheduled to release on September 6. However, there are demands to ban the film on the grounds that it misrepresents the Sikh community. Recently, Kangana said through social media that her film was cleared by the CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification), however the film has now been denied the certificate after people associated with it received threats.
