Kangana Indirectly Talks About Alia Not Knowing Who India's President Was: 'That Dumb Shot Of...'

Kangana Ranaut reacted to a troll accusing of her of lack of knowledge. A user on X (previously known as Twitter) called out Kangana after the actress said in a recent interview that no one knew who the president of India was before 2014. The user said, “Of course! What can we expect from her? She has been consistent in her lack of knowledge.” Kangana did not mince her words when she replied to the social media user and indirectly brought up the time Alia Bhatt did not know who the President of India was in an episode of Koffee With Karan.

Replying to the user, Kangana wrote, “Madam it was a pop cultural shock when a certain leading actress on the most popular TV show said Prithavi Raj Chauhan was our then president. Don’t know what is failing you your memory or your common sense, because no one can ever forget that dumb shot of coffee with Karan.”

Back in 2013, when Alia Bhatt appeared on the episode of Koffee With Karan alongside Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra, Karan Johar asked them who the President of India was at the time. Alia replied, “Prithviraj Chauhan” when the Indian President at the time was Dr Pranab Mukherjee. The answer left Karan and the country in shock. Alia poked fun at the incident later in a video by AIB and later, the incident was referred to in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.

Meanwhile, a social media user replied to Kangana, “If someone from Bollywood doesn’t know , it doesn’t mean the whole country is not aware.” The actress clapped back and said, “The point is now even they (bollywoodias ) know you dumb ass.”

On the work front, Kangana will be seen in Tejas in October. She also has Emergency, her directorial debut film, slated to release later this year.
