Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut and Kangana Ranaut's war of words took a fresh turn when the actress stated that Raut doesn't represent entire Maharashtra. She further announced that she will return to Mumbai on September 9.
Kangana accused Raut of "empowering those who exploit women" in the country in her video, posted on social media.
"Sanjay Raut ji, you called me 'h'''''''r.' It shows your mindset...If I criticise Mumbai Police or if I criticise you, then you can't say I am insulting Maharashtra. You are not Maharashtra. Your people are threatening me, still, I will come to Mumbai on September 9, [sic]" Ranaut said in the video.
