Bollywood actor and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut recently drew attention for her comments on Gen Z protests over the alleged NEET-UG paper leak. In multiple social media posts, she described some Gen Z demonstrators as the “gutter generation.” The actor-turned-politician has now shared another post stating that she identifies as part of Gen Alpha.
Kangana Ranaut says she identifies as Gen Alpha
On Saturday, Kangana posted a reel on her Instagram Story. The clip showed a young girl behaving like a Gen Z “influencer” while encouraging people to eat lettuce. The caption on the reel said, “Gen Alpha roasting Gen Z is pure gold.” Sharing the video, Kangana added, “It is official I identify as Gen Alpha. Gen Alpha is like come to the point, no nonsense detected.” She also uploaded another video featuring a small child dressed as a soldier and commented, “Gen Alpha is bleeding tricolour.”
What did Kangana Ranaut say about Gen Z?
Earlier, Kangana shared several videos condemning the CJP protesters for the language they used against political leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
She had remarked, “Never in my life have I witnessed so much ugliness in one place; these videos of Gen Z protests are nauseating. The way they talk and the kind of language they use—never before have I seen every single frame look so jarring and vulgar at the same time. Eww, who is giving birth to them and bringing them up? Here is a new generation of supposedly westernised Indian women. I call them ‘generation gutter.’” Yet, a few days later, she seemed to moderate her position, referring to Gen Z as “the strength and assets of our country.”
Kangana Ranaut’s recent and upcoming work
Kangana most recently appeared in Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata. Directed by Manoj Tapadia, the film is inspired by the real-life story of the nurses and staff at Cama Hospital who protected patients during the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks. Although the movie was praised by critics, it did not achieve strong box office results.
Kangana is preparing to step into Hollywood. As reported by Variety, the Queen star will make her Hollywood debut with the horror drama Blessed Be the Evil. The Lions Movies production will feature Kangana alongside Tyler Posey and Scarlet Rose Stallone. The film will be directed by Anurag Rudra, who co-wrote the screenplay with Gatha Tiwary.
