Actor Kangana Ranaut’s recent remark on India’s independence hasn’t gone down well with many public figures across the country. A 91-year-old freedom fighter Leela Chitale, has now slammed Kangana on her statement where she said that the freedom India got in 1947 was ‘bheekh’.

In a widely circulated video on social media, Leela Chitale in Marathi says, “Recently, I saw of a news being continuously broadcast of a woman named Kangana Ranaut saying that the country got freedom in ‘Bheekh (alms)’. Watching it made me uneasy and angry.”
