Kangana Ranaut took a dig at Jaya Bachchan's statement and asked her that would she hold the same opinions if it was her son, Abhishek Bachchan, who was found hanging? Her tweet can be read as "Jaya ji would you say the same thing if in my place it was your daughter Shweta beaten, drugged and molested as a teenage, would you say the same thing if Abhieshek complained about bullying and harassment constantly and found hanging one day? Show compassion for us also."
Talking about Jaya Bachchan's statement, she had said, "People in the entertainment industry are being flogged by social media. People who made their names in the industry have called it a gutter. I completely disagree. I hope that the government tells such people not to use this kind of language. Just because there are some people, you can't tarnish the image of the entire industry. I am ashamed that yesterday one of our members in Lok Sabha, who is from the film industry, spoke against it. It is a shame."
Earlier, in a conversation with ETimes, Kangana Ranaut's father, Amardeep Ranaut talked about his daughter's sheer will and said, "She does not spare even her Papa.

No matter how big or great a child turns out to be, a parent is always concerned and protective of his or her child. But now I am not fretting about it. I understand why her battles are important to her. She is doing the right thing; she is fighting for all the self-made women and for the empowerment of women. That is why the entire country is behind her."
