On August 12, 2026, Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut sparked controversy by calling veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah a "lomdi" in response to his comments about student protests. The actress' Instagram story calling Shah the derogatory term quickly went viral, drawing widespread attention.
In an interview with ANI, Kangana defended her remarks, explaining that she had spoken to Shah because he had made a "dirty video" containing threats. She urged him to respect the dignity of democracy and the elected Prime Minister, Modi, stating that they should be honored according to the Constitution.
Kangana also questioned Bollywood's apparent love affair with Pakistan, noting that the industry's sentiment towards the country had not diminished since its partition.
