Taking a dig at Mahatma Gandhi, the actress further wrote, “Those are the ones who taught us, if someone slaps you offer another cheek for one more slap and that is how you will get aazaadi. That’s not how one gets aazadi, one can only get bheekh like that. Choose your heroes wisely." ALSO READ: Kangana Ranaut’s 8 statements that made her the ‘Queen’ of controversies

She also claimed that Mahatma Gandhi never supported Bhagat Singh or Subhash Chandra Bose. “There is evidence that suggest Gandhi ji wanted to Bhagat Singh to be hanged…So you need to choose who you support because just placing them all in one box of your memory and every year wishing them all on their birth anniversaries is not enough. In fact, it is not just dumb, it is highly irresponsible and superficial. One must know their history and their heroes."

Yesterday, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar refused to talk about the 34-year-old actress' provocative comments suggesting that India's Independence in 1947 was a 'bheek'. He said, how can anyone publish this and said such statements deserve zero importance. He also said that people should make fun of and stop paying attention to such people.
