Mumbai:
A rough back and forth between Maharashtra’s chief minister Uddhav Thackeray and Kangana Ranaut has reached a new low. The actor attacked the Chief Minister in a series of tweets today.
On Sunday, Uddhav Thackeray had attacked “those who abuse Mumbai by calling it Pakistani-occupied Kashmir,” without naming Kangana Ranaut.
“People who have no livelihoods at home come to Mumbai and betray it. Calling Mumbai PoK is indeed the failure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He had said that he would return PoK to India,” Thackeray said, adding that Maharashtra haters had left no stone unturned in defaming the state.
“Mumbai is PoK, there are drug addicts everywhere, they are painting such a picture. They do not know that in our house we grow tulsi, no ganja (marijuana). The marijuana fields are in your state, you know where, not in our Maharashtra, “he said.
In response, Kangana Ranaut called the Chief Minister the “worst product” of nepotism.
“(Sanjay) Raut called me Haramkhor now Uddhav (Thackeray) called me namak-haram (treacherous), he says I will not get food in my state if Mumbai does not give me shelter, what a shame I am the age of his son, this is how you talk to a single woman who made herself, Prime Minister, you are the worst product of nepotism, “said the actor.
“Chief Minister I am not drunk with the power and wealth of my father like you, if I had wanted to be a product of nepotism I could have stayed in Himachal, I am from a recognized family, I did not want to live off his wealth and favors, some people have self-esteem and self-esteem (sic) “.
You should be ashamed of yourself Prime Minister, being a public servant you are indulging in petty fights, using your power to insult, harm and humiliate people who disagree with you, you do not deserve the chair you have acquired by playing dirty politics. SHAME.

Kangana Ranaut lashed out last month at the Chief Minister in a video that addressed him as “you“(an informal version of you).
Their fight began when the 33-year-old outspoken actor accused Shiv Sena of Thackeray, who heads the Maharashtra government and controls Mumbai civic body, of attacking her in a war of words over the Sushant Singh Rajput case. She had criticized the handling of the case by the Mumbai police and said she did not feel safe in the city.
The Seine was furious when it compared Mumbai to Pakistani-occupied Kashmir (PoK). When a Mumbai civic body demolition team began tearing down what it called illegal parts of Kangana Ranaut’s office in Mumbai, she accused the Sena of vendetta.
Kangana Ranaut’s meeting with the state governor, Bhagat Singh Koshyari, who has been critical of Thackeray, further disturbed the Chief Minister.
