Meanwhile, Akshay Kumar, Sara Ali Khan, Mahesh Babu and others extend wishes to Kangana.
No sooner the list was announced, Kangana Ranaut took to her social media handle and wrote, “her beloved Bharat and Bharatiya Janta party ( BJP) has always had her unconditional support, and the national leadership of BJP has announced her as their Loksabha candidate from her birth place Himachal Pradesh, Mandi (constituency) She abides by the high command’s decision on contesting Loksabha polls. She feels honoured and elated to officially join the party and looks forward to be a worthy karyakarta and a reliable public servant.
A couple of weeks back, in an interview, Kangana Ranaut said that she felt deeply responsible for fulfilling her duties towards the nation. She has literally fought from film sets with political parties, but that doesn’t keep her away; and doesn’t take her a seat to do what she wants to do for her country. But if she wants to get into politics, she probably thinks this is the right time.
The actress further shared, that this country has given her so much; and feels deeply responsible to give back. She has always been more of a nationalist, and that image has taken over even her very glorious acting career. She does have the awareness that she is deeply loved and appreciated.
Earlier, Kangana had also spoken about her interest in politics or whether she wants to compete in an election or not, saying, “Shri Krishna ki kripa rahi to ladenge (If Lord Krishna showers blessings, she will fight).” However, earlier in the year, Kangana wrote on her social media handle, she is a sensitive and sensible person, not a political person. She was asked to join politics many times, she didn’t.
