Kangana Ranaut Fires Back at Baba Ramdev Over ‘Generation Gutter’ Criticism
· Entertainment · Indian Express, NDTV
Kangana Ranaut, an actor‑politician, responded to yoga guru Baba Ramdev after the guru slammed her remarks calling Indian Gen Z a "Generation Gutter". On August 19, 2026, in Kochi, Ranaut posted on Instagram stories telling Ramdev not to "daydream about my jawani or bedroom" and asserting that no fraud has been detected under her name. Ramdev had questioned her qualifications during a TV9 Satta Sammelan, prompting her retort. The incident follows Ranaut’s social media comments on young women emulating independent careers and labeling them as corrupt. The debate highlights tensions between celebrity political figures and consumer‑brand leaders such as Patanjali, Ramdev’s company.
Why it matters
The clash raises public scrutiny of political celebrities and may influence both her party’s image and Patanjali’s brand reputation ahead of upcoming elections.
