Kangana’s reel sparks row over Pakistani song

Shimla, May 15(UNI) Bollywood actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut landed in the midst of a controversy after sharing an Instagram reel featuring a Pakistani song.
The video, filmed at Jaipur’s Rambagh Palace during her visit on May 10, shows Kangana dancing with a peacock and plucking raw mangoes — all set to ‘Dum Naal Dum Bharangi Ranjheya Ve...’ sung by Pakistan’s musical duo Zain-Zoheb.
Shared on her official Instagram handle, the 35-second reel has garnered over 16 lakh likes and 35,000 shares. While the visuals were appreciated by many, a section of users has taken strong objection to the use of a Pakistani track, especially given Kangana’s previously sharp criticism of Pakistan.
Adding to the outrage, @abdulakhledkhan said, “She is using Pakistani song right after India was humiliated by Pakistan Army. Boycott this lady.” User @mp_mani_1313 questioned her political maturity, posting, “How did you become a Member of Parliament….” UNI ML SSP
