In the wake of a catastrophic flood that has ravaged parts of Himachal Pradesh, actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut, as promised, visited the areas that faced destruction due to the natural calamity. She took to X and shared pictures of her visit, as she communicated with the locals and inspected the damage. 


Kangana wrote on X, “Today visiting flood-hit areas in Himachal Pradesh. We are so vulnerable before this vast universe…. Oh goddess earth, mother of life be kind to us.”




The Bharatiya Janata Party MP from Mandi, on Friday, termed it as "saddening" and said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah have taken reports.

"It's a very saddening thing for us. The life of people living in the mountains is tough. Every year such tragedies come and damage the lives and property of the people of Himachal Pradesh. The PM and the Union HM have taken reports for all the things and have given assurance that more help through relief funds will be provided. I'll also meet different ministers to seek as much help as I can get. After my work is completed here, I'll visit Himachal to meet people in their tough times," Kangana said.

Kangana's visit comes after the Himachal Pradesh Mahila Congress Committee, Jenab Chandel accused her of neglecting the issues of the flood-affected regions. 

According to State Minister Rajesh Dharmani, 4 people have died and 49 are still missing. The Himachal government, led by Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, has mobilized extensive rescue and relief efforts. The disaster, triggered by a cloud burst, has left a trail of destruction in its wake, particularly affecting regions around Manali.

Meanwhile, Kangana will next be seen in 'Emergency', which is all set to release on September 6. A project helmed entirely by Kangana Ranaut boasts a stellar cast including Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, and the late Satish Kaushik in pivotal roles. Produced by Zee Studios and Manikarnika Films, the film is set against the backdrop of one of India's most tumultuous political periods and promises to be a portrayal of historical events.
