Kangana Ranaut reacts
On Sunday, Kangana took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to react to the claims that she injured Vir during a kissing scene in Revolver Rani. The actor shared her thoughts while thanking Vir for coming forward to set the record straight and dismiss the viral claims.
Vouching for Kangana’s professionalism on the sets of Revolver Rani, Vir wrote, “Right. Just so we are clear. This story is pure fiction. Kangana was a complete professional and I still maintain, a truly gifted artist. This is unfair slander to her. She went on to call me a terrorist a few years later for my comedy but on set…no problems at all.”
Reacting to Vir’s post, Kangana dismissed the viral claims and took a sarcastic swipe at the rumours, while thanking the comedian for clearing the air.
Kangana wrote, “Thanks Vir but who is she? Ewww seems like some weirdo using us to satisfy her demonic sex fantasies, I am eating your blood and you are traumatised and crying even today after a decade. How random (laughing emoji).”
The discussion surrounding Revolver Rani gained momentum on social media after journalist Simi Chandoke made a claim during her appearance on Siddharth Kannan’s podcast. She claimed that Kangana continued kissing Vir Das even after the scene had been cut, leaving the actor injured.
In the podcast, Simi claimed that Vir went through a traumatic time shooting for Revolver Rani with Kangana. She further claimed that there was a scene that required her to kiss him passionately, where Kangana got carried away and forgot to stop. She said that the actor kept going even after the scene ended, claiming that she also bit his lip so badly “that it was bleeding”.
