The nation has been taken by storm with the results of the state elections pouring in. It shouldn't come as a surprise that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) is leading by a majority of seats in states like Rajasthan, Chattisgarh, and Madhya Pradesh.

Amidst the state elections in 2023, Kangana Ranaut has made her mark in trending news with yet another controversial statement.

While the BJP is leading in three states, Congress is enjoying the win in Telangana. For the uninitiated, the state election comprised five states: Rajasthan, Chattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Telngana, and Mizoram.

Her tweet read, "Lord Rama has come #Election Results." Reacting to her post, a user replied, "She's literally comparing PM Modi with the Hindu God. Is this allowed in Hinduism?"

The Tanu Weds Manu actress hit back and wrote, "Yes, it is allowed. Shri Krishna has said in Geeta that I am the same as my true devotee there is no difference between him and me we have such cute and chilled-out gods! No beheading, no whip lashing you also come to our team."

"Also, my quote meant that Modi ji has brought Rama ji to Ayodhya, so the public has brought him (victory). But what you understood is also not wrong," Kangana further added, referring to Ram Mandir being constructed in Ayodhya, whose inauguration ceremony will be held in January 2024.
