In a surprising turn of events, Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has won the Mandi constituency in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Known for her fearless attitude and outspoken nature, Kangana has often made headlines for taking on Bollywood’s elite and addressing issues like nepotism.
Kangana’s entry into politics marks a significant shift in her career, adding a new dimension to her public persona. Over the years, she has built a reputation not only as a talented actress but also as a strong, independent voice unafraid of controversy. Her victory in Mandi is seen by many as a testament to her resilience and connection with the public.
“They will have to suffer the consequences of talking so low about a woman… And that is becoming clear today with the way we have got the lead. Mandi has not taken kindly to the insults for daughters”, Ms. Ranaut said ANI.
To retain all parliamentary seats and win six Assembly seats, the BJP, which had won every Lok Sabha seat in 2014 and 2019, was counting heavily on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “charisma” following his three election rallies. Meanwhile, the Congress was focusing on its sizable support base of 2.5 lakh government employees, whose demands to reinstate the previous pension plan had been met by its government under Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu.
