Taapsee on feud with Kangana

Speaking about her feud with Kangana, Taapsee told India Today, "I haven't met her. I didn't meet her before when these so-called issues started. I haven't met her now as well. My opinion on her is reflective of my upbringing and my way of talking, my way of perceiving things and hers... she stands by hers. So, I think that's enough for everybody to look and decide who comes from where."

When asked why she had never considered entering politics, Taapsee stated, "I am too honest and vulnerable for this. Also, I want to do a few more films. I am not at all considering joining, and I don't have the DNA for that. I am an educated citizen of this country."

About Taapsee and Kangana's feud

The controversy dates back to 2019, when Taapsee praised the trailer of Kangana Ranaut's film Judgementall Hai Kya without mentioning Kangana by name. Rangoli Chandel, Kangana's sister, took offence and called Taapsee a sasti copy of Kangana Ranaut.

Taapsee had addressed her past feud with Kangana in an interview with Shubhankar Mishra, saying she never clashed with her and has not spoken against her. Responding to the ‘sasti copy' remark, she said she holds no grudge and would respectfully greet Kangana if they meet. When asked whether she would be open to a friendship with Kangana, the Pink actress said, "Absolutely. I've always said that if I ever see her around, I will definitely go up to her… Technically, she is my senior. Why wouldn't I go up to her and respectfully say hello?"
