Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut, who is in the midst of a verbal duel with Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Raut, received Y security status from the Union Ministry of the Interior (MHA), officials said Monday.
The decision was made after the actor compared Mumbai to Pakistani-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Raut de Sena responded to him in the party’s spokesman, Saamana, asking him not to return to Mumbai for criticizing the Mumbai police. She has said that she will arrive in Mumbai on September 9.
