Kangana Ranaut reacts to India name change row.- freed from slave name, Jai Bharat’
After megastar Amitabh Bachchan, actress, Kangana Ranaut has reacted to the proposed resolution to rename India as Bharat. The actress had shared an old post of her statement in which she had called for the abolition of the name India.
Taking to her X account, controversial actress Kangana Ranaut re-shared a user’s post which having screenshot of her 2021 news article. Two years ago, Kangana had mentioned that ‘slave name’ India should be abolished and the country should be christened as ‘Bharat’ instead.
Kangana wrote, that some call it black magic …. It’s simply Grey matter honey. Congratulations to everyone!! Freed from a slave name … Jai Bharat.” She also added an emoji of Indian flag along with the caption.
In 2021, through her Koo account Kangana wrote that the country cannot progress if it remains a ‘cheap copy’ of the Western world.
She wrote, “India can only escalate rooted in its ancient spirituality and wisdom, that is the soul of our great civilisation.
The world will look up to us and we will emerge as a world leader if we rise in urban growth but not be a cheap copy of western world and remain deeply rooted in Vedas, Geeta and Yoga, can we please change this slave name India back to Bharat.”
She had followed it up with another post where she explained the meaning of the word Bharat and claimed that it is made up of three Sanskrit words.
She went on to explain that the “British gave us slave name India… which literally means east of Indus River. Really would you call a child small nose or second-born or worse C section? What kind of a name is this? So rudimentary. Bharat is made of three Sanskrit words BH (bhav), Ra (rag), ta (tal). Yes that’s who we were before we were enslaved, most culturally and aesthetically evolved civilisation.”
Every name has a vibration and British knew this and they not only gave new names to places but even to people and important monuments. We must regain our lost glory, let’s start with the name Bharat.
Kangana is quite active on social media and often shares her views and opinions on various political issues.
On the work front. Kangana will be seen as late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in Emergency which marks her first solo-directorial film.
Apart, Emergency, she is also gearing up for the release of Tejas in which she plays an Air Force Pilot. The film is scripted and helmed by Sarvesh Mewara and it is scheduled to release in theatres on October 20, 2023.
