When she compared the city of Mumbai with Pakistan-occupied Kashmir

The current snafu hinges on Ranaut’s recent social media posts, where she compared Mumbai, the capital of Maharashtra, to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), and stated she didn’t feel safe there any more.

This led to a political maelstrom involving chief minister Uddhav Thackeray, who is also the leader of the Hindu nationalist Shiv Sena party. In what the government insists is an unrelated incident (Ranaut claims it is payback), a municipal crew tore down an office on the site of her Mumbai residence on the grounds of illegal construction.

The firebrand actress has retaliated by vowing to “expose” Thackeray and top film director Karan Johar, whom she has accused of collusion.

The case has escalated quickly: police provided 24-hour security to Ranaut, and the Mumbai High Court ordered a stay on the demolition. Ranaut says she will work among the ruins “as a symbol of a woman’s will that dared to rise in this world”.

When she demanded top stars take a drugs test to prove they are clean

Ranaut alleges that nearly all of Bollywood is involved in drug use, which she brought to everyone’s attention in a recent tweet: “I specifically mentioned most high profile parties and inner circle of hugely successful stars, I have no doubt that people like you have never been invited to those parties cos these drugs are expensive, 99 per cent superstars have been exposed to hard drugs and I guarantee this.”

Twitter exploded, Bollywood was instantly divided, and Ranaut’s social media account became a battle ground, with angry critics demanding she provide proof.

When she suggested that Sushant Singh Rajput was killed because he “knew some dirty secrets”

Ranaut’s allegations about Bollywood’s dependence on drugs are linked to the case of Sushant Singh Rajput, the actor who died by suicide on June 14.

It is one of the biggest scandals currently being played out on Indian television, and latest developments include the arrest of his girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty – she is currently in jail on the charge of supplying cannabis to Rajput – and the revelation of links between her family and a drug cartel.

When she appeared on Karan Johar’s chat show and accused him of nepotism

Ranaut’s long-running feud with filmmaker Karan Johar began in 2010, when she first appeared on his gossipy television chat show Koffee with Karan, where the snarky director grilled her about her love life and inquired if she had cosmetic surgery done.

In 2017, the actress got her own back. Ranaut, a Bollywood outsider who is proud to have made it in on her own merit, told an incredulous Johar she wanted him to “write a chapter on nepotism in her biopic”.

She went on to say this, while the usually verbose auteur sat gobsmacked on his plush set: “In my biopic, if ever it’s made, you’ll play that stereotypical Bollywood biggie, who is like, you know … very snooty and completely intolerant towards outsiders, a flag bearer of nepotism, the movie mafia.”
