Kangana Ranaut has said one shouldn’t judge a person on the basis of their gender and sexuality and those who do, they don’t go very far in life. She has also spoken against those who make their gender their identity and “flaunt it everywhere”. She said she doesn’t like being referred to as “just a woman” as she never perceived her that way. Her statements come as the Supreme Court hears on pleas for legal sanction for same sex marriages.
Kangana Ranaut took to social media Friday morning to talk about gender neutrality. She wrote, “Whether you are a man/woman/ anything else your gender is of no consequence to anyone but you, please understand. In Modern world we don’t even use words like actresses or female directors we call them actors and directors. What you do in the world is your identity, not what you do in bed. Whatever your sexual preferences are they must remain in your bed only. Don’t make them your identity card or medals and flaunt every where. Most importantly don’t roam around with a knife to cut every throat who don’t agree with your gender. I am again saying your gender is not your identity don’t make it that way. I am a woman from rural area life gave me no concession I had to make my own place in the world of actors, film makers, producers and writers.”
She further added, “Never ever see people from the lens of gender or any other physical attributes. You know what happened to those who thought Kangana is just a woman. They were in for a big surprise because I am not, I never see/perceive myself or anyone else that way. I am always in a room full of people, individual energies only people not men/women/homo/hetro/ physically strong or weak, no!!!!!! I would have not come this far had I judged everyone around me and myself on so many levels …. Why you all waste so much time on physicality of people around you, please understand you won’t go very far if you have such limiting view and perception of the world ……. and those who don’t judge others will never judge themselves either …. So free yourself from gender or any other limiting perception…. Rise and shine as who you are and Dharma says you are God absolute divine way beyond the physical… All the best.” She added that one should tell children that “physical world exists in many layers” while talking about gender.
Kangana was last seen in Dhaakad which turned out to be a dud at the box office. She will next be seen as former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in her directorial, Emergency. She also has Tejas, Chandramukhi 2 and few other films in pipeline.
