Kangana Ranaut, locked in a dramatic face-off with Maharashtra’s ruling Shiv Sena, has been compared to freedom fighter Bhagat Singh by southern star Vishal. In a post on twitter, he said the actor had set an example for people to “speak against the government” when something is not right.
“Hats off to your guts, you have never thought twice to voice out what is right and what is wrong. It wasn’t your personal issue, but even then facing the wrath of the government, you stayed strong which makes it a very big example. It is something similar to what Bhagat Singh did in the 1920s,” Vishal said in his post.
“This will set an example for people to speak against the government when something is not right and not necessarily being a celebrity but also as a common man (sic). Kudos to you, I bow to you,” said Vishal, adding in boldface “Freedom of Speech (Article 19)”.
