Team Kangana Ranaut vs Taapsee Pannu, Swara Bhasker: Twitter battle is on
Mumbai: The digital team of Kangana Ranaut on Monday was engaged in a battle of cryptic tweets with Taapsee Pannu and Swara Bhasker. The social media war seems to be an outcome of certain comments Kangana made in reference to Taapsee and Swara in a television interview.
Taapsee tweeted to allege that “someone” is trying to use divide-and-rule policy in the film industry, without taking names.
Before that there is someone trying to use divide n rule policy in the film industry. Yes there are differences between ppl born with pedigree n the ‘outsiders’ but we aren’t battling each other we are battling for a BETTER SYSTEM TO CO EXIST not by mud slinging n name calling! https://t.co/Q1WXo4Qi21

“Before that there is someone trying to use divide n rule policy in the film industry. Yes there are differences between ppl born with pedigree n the ‘outsiders’ but we aren’t battling each other we are battling for a BETTER SYSTEM TO CO EXIST not by mud slinging n name calling!” Taapsee tweeted from her verified account on Monday.
Taapsee’s tweet comes in the wake of Kangana’s interview given to a TV channel over the weekend, where she called Taapsee and Swara “B-grade actresses” and “needy outsiders”.

The tweet by Taapsee came as a response to a netizen’s tweet that reads: “History would remember @taapsee and @ReallySwara as people who stood up against hate without being hateful. Two actors who could’ve easily stayed silent like most of their colleagues while their country was being divided by a dictator, but chose not to.”
IMHO, there is nothing more degrading than a woman pulling down other women for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. And when those women are sheroes like @taapsee and @ReallySwara, I’m genuinely dumbfounded.
Oh and you call yourself a “feminist” and “pro-women”? Sure, of course you are!— Janice Sequeira (@janiceseq85) July 20, 2020
On Monday, scriptwriter Kanika Dhillon tweeted from her verified account: “Attagirl! @taapsee … N not to forget… as per recent articles in public domain-n I quote ‘her last 5 releases made 352 cr’ at box-office- stating her as d Most successful n highest grossing actress of hindi film industry last year!” Well take a bow! so proud o u!”
“I guess that’s what qualified me for B grade,” came Taapsee’s tongue-in-cheek response.
Kangana’s digital team, which goes by the name Team Kangana Ranaut on an unverified Twitter account, took a dig at both Taapsee and Kanika.
“MissionM or Badla they are male dominated films, @taapsee never gave a solo hit in her whole life @KanikaDhillon n whole left ecosystem trying to cover up murder of SSR who complained about nepotism n Bullying shame on you all no one defended him but defending his murders now,” tweeted Team Kangana Ranaut.

Just a few minutes after Swara’s tweet, Team Kangana Ranaut responded with this cryptic tweet from their unverified account: “Kangana pridicted this in her interview, vultures will be out for her blood, needy, greedy, liberals with price tags on them and struggling B grade failed actors whose ambitions r beyond their worth n talent are all out attacking a single woman who raised her voice against Mafia.”
