Actor Kangana Ranaut recently reacted to the boxing match between Italy's Angela Carini and Imane Khelif, criticizing it as unfair. The actor-politician spoke out against the controversial win by the Algerian boxer, who had been disqualified from the 2023 world championship for failing an unspecified gender eligibility test. Khelif’s participation in the Paris Games has ignited significant debate online.
Kangana posted on Instagram stories a photo of Angela crying in the ring after losing and breaking her nose. She captioned it, ‘This girl had to fight a 7-foot-tall naturally born male, who has all the physical traits of a man and beat her in the ring like a male in a physical abuse scenario. Yet he identifies as female, so guess who won the women’s boxing match? Woke culture is the most unfair and unjust practice. Speak up before it’s your daughter’s job or medal taken away. #SaveWomenSports’
In another story, she commented, ‘To have a woke relationship (homosexual relationship), it seems one partner must take on a female role while the other assumes a male role. They enjoy playing stereotypical male and female roles but encourage regular women to be effeminate in the name of feminism. Hmmm…strange! Honestly, I love homosexuals—some of my closest friends are homosexuals, and they are exceptionally talented and brilliant. That’s why I believe they shouldn’t need to imitate anyone for acceptance.’
Kangana further wrote, ‘They don't need to play cheap, atrocious, inauthentic copies of men or women. They are super brilliant, they should come out exactly the way God made them. There should not be any need to be in denial of your natural self. They must accept themselves and should focus on shining in every field and not be overtly frivolous or sexual. They must bring dignity and value to their community. They deserve better and we must make a safe world for them where they can be their natural authentic self and get equal opportunities.’
Kangana Ranaut will be next seen in her directorial ‘Emergency’ in which she portrays former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
