Actor-politician Kangana Ranaut, known for her outspoken nature, has once again stirred conversations with her candid remarks on her personal life, the film industry, and modern dating culture. Speaking to Hauterrfly, she addressed longstanding allegations about her dating life, her experiences as an outsider in Bollywood, and her opinions on live-in relationships and dating apps.
Responding to Allegations of Dating Married Men
Kangana’s relationships have often been under public scrutiny, particularly her reported past with actor Aditya Pancholi, who was married to Zarina Wahab, and her alleged involvement with Hrithik Roshan after his divorce. Many critics accused her of pursuing married men with children. She dismissed these claims, saying society tends to target women in such situations while excusing men’s behaviour.
According to Kangana, when a young and ambitious woman is approached by a married man, the blame often falls on her. She said, “When you are young and ambitious, and a married man with kids hits on you, it’s you who are falling for someone in a relationship."
The actress turned politician compared this mindset to victim-blaming in sexual assault cases, where women are judged based on their clothing or being out late.
Kangana has been vocal about her turbulent past with Pancholi, alleging abuse when she was still a minor. As per an India Today report, Kangana that claimed she sought help from his wife and eventually filed an FIR. Regarding Hrithik Roshan, she has maintained her version of events, although the actor has repeatedly denied any romantic involvement.
Criticism of Dating Apps
When asked about joining a dating app, Kangana dismissed the idea entirely, calling such platforms “the gutter of our society.” She argued that people turn to these apps out of a need for validation or a lack of confidence, claiming successful individuals meet partners through work, education, or arranged introductions. She further remarked that dating apps are filled with “losers” who have failed to form meaningful connections in real life.
Thoughts on Live-In Relationships and Marriage
Kangana also expressed her disapproval of live-in relationships, describing them as “not women-friendly.” She raised concerns about lack of support in case of pregnancy and stressed that marriage remains an important social promise of loyalty. She highlighted biological and emotional differences between men and women, stating that while laws exist to protect women, the societal risks in such arrangements remain high.
Reflecting on her early years, Kangana revealed she faced casting couch offers and exploitation common to outsiders in the film industry. She described the industry as “dirty and unkind,” adding that male co-stars often treated her as secondary, arriving late on sets or giving her smaller facilities. She said she chose to speak up despite being labelled “full of herself,” as she refused to accept disrespectful behaviour.
