Kangana Ranaut got trolled after slamming Bollywood for “vulgarity” over a Nora Fatehi Kannada song.

Actress, politician Kangana Ranaut is no stranger to taking bold stands against the Hindi film industry, but her latest attempt to call out “vulgarity” has backfired spectacularly. The actress-politician is currently facing intense trolling on social media after she lashed out at Bollywood for a controversial new song – only for netizens to point out that the film in question isn't even a Bollywood production. The controversy began with the release of ‘Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke’, a track featuring Nora Fatehi and Sanjay Dutt.

Speaking to news agency ANI, Kangana Ranaut didn't mince words, stating, “Bollywood has crossed all limits with vulgarity, tactics, and attention-seeking. The entire country is condemning and reprimanding them. But I don't think they have any shame.” She further called for “strict reins” to be put on the industry to curb obscenity.

However, social media users were quick to provide a reality check. The song is actually part of the upcoming pan-India Kannada film ‘KD: The Devil’, starring Dhruva Sarja. While the song was dubbed in Hindi for a wider audience, the creative control and production lie with the Kannada film industry.

Netizens flooded X (formerly Twitter) with comments telling the actress to “do some research” before “blabbering”, with many mocking her for using a regional film’s content to fuel her ongoing feud with the Mumbai-based industry.

Check out some of the reactions here:

 

While Kangana Ranaut’s target may have been misplaced, the criticism regarding the song’s content is widespread. The track has been slammed for its lyrics, which many describe as a graphic double entendre detailing sexual acts. The backlash isn't just coming from social media "trolls"; industry insiders are also speaking out.

Singer Armaan Malik expressed his "shock" on X, stating that commercial songwriting has hit a "new low." He noted that he had to replay the clip to ensure he had heard the lyrics correctly. Acclaimed director Onir also joined the chorus of criticism, questioning how such "rubbish lyrics" passed while the censor board is often busy with minor issues.

The situation has escalated beyond social media debates. An advocate has reportedly approached the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) seeking an immediate ban, alleging the visuals and lyrics are "highly vulgar" and harmful to minors. Additionally, a criminal complaint has been filed with the Delhi Police Cyber Cell regarding the song’s provocative nature.

In response to the massive public outcry, the Hindi version of the song has been pulled down from YouTube. While the original Kannada version remains accessible for now, the lyricist, Raqeeb Alam, has reportedly claimed he originally objected to the content and that a revised version is on the way.
