Kangana Ranaut reflects on her infamous Koffee With Karan episode: ‘Karan Johar chote mote local villain hai, ab to meri biopic me bade bade villain aayenge’

Kangana Ranaut recently reflected on her infamous 2017 appearance on Koffee With Karan, where she labeled Karan Johar a “flagbearer of nepotism” and a “film mafia”. In a new interview with The Lallantop, Kangana revealed that Karan was “surprised” by her bold comments.
During the interview, when reminded of her earlier comment about Karan playing a stereotypical character villain in a potential biographical film Kangana laughed at her and replied, “Ab toh just a biopic mein bade level pe, bade wale villain honge.Ye chote, mote villain nahi. Local nahi! Isko abhi chota villain banayenge! Ab achche, bade bade schurk aayenge mere life mein (Karan Johar is just a local villain. If my biopic gets made now, there will be a bigger villain. There are bigger villains in my life now)!”
Kangana also discussed the Koffee with Karan episode and said, “Usko pata he kartute hi uske aisa he ki usko pata he! He is very conceited, very classist. He was surprised that I gave it back to him (he knows exactly what he is doing, so he knows).”

Kangana is currently promoting her upcoming film EmergencyIn a new episode of Aap Ki Adaalat with Rajat Sharma, Kangana responded to a question whether Congress MP Rahul Gandhi might like her film, and replied saying, “Agar woh ghar jaakar Tom & Jerry dekhte honge toh unhe kaise samajh ayegi (If he watches Tom & Jerry at home, how will he understand my film?)”

On the other hand, Kangana revealed that Emergency is still awaiting certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) due to threats against board members. She said this has put pressure on them not to depict the assassination of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, Bhindrawale and the Punjab riots in the film. Kangana described the situation as “unbelievable” and expressed regret over the current state of affairs.
