Punjab: Farmers surrounded the car of actress Kangana Ranaut demanding an apology for her statements against farmers who were protesting against the Centre's controversial farm laws. The Centre had finally repealed the three farm laws last week.
Farmers stopped Ranaut's car in Punjab's Kiratpur Sahib on Friday.
An enthusiastic supporter of the saffron party, Kangana Ranaut , has thrown her remarks on farmers protesting against their rights and equity. She has often pointed out farmers as terrorists, Khalistanis and anti-social elements.
"I have been surrounded by a mob here. They are abusing me and threatening to kill me," she claimed in a video posted through her Instagram.
