Congress leaders in Madhya Pradesh's Betul district have threatened that they would not allow Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut to shoot for a film if she did not apologize to farmers over her tweets. However, BJP leader and state home minister Narottam Mishra assured that the government will ensure that "behan- beti" Kangana faces no problem while shooting, reported PTI. Reacting over the issue, Kangana tweeted, "Mujhe netagiri mai koi interest nahi hai, magar lagta hai ki Congress mujhe neta bana kar hi chhodegi (I have no interest in politics, but looks like the Congress will leave me after I become a politician only)." 

Shooting for "Dhakad", Ranaut's new film, is going on in Sarni area of Betul district. State Congress Sewa Dal secretary Manoj Arya and Chicholi Block Congress Committee president Nekram Yadav on Wednesday submitted a memorandum to a tehsildar in Betul.Ranaut had maligned farmers, the Congress leaders alleged. Twitter had recently deleted some of Ranaut's controversial tweets over the farmers' protest. Speaking about, Dhakkad, Kangana has been sharing several glimpses from her prep for the film. A few days ago, she had shared a video rehearsing one of the biggest action sequences of the film. The actress posted the video on social media along with a caption that read, “Never saw a director who gives so much time and importance to rehearsals, one of the biggest action sequences will be shot from tomorrow night but amazed with the amount of prep, getting to learn so much, more than 25 crores being spent on a single action sequence #Dhaakad” The film is  being directed by Razneesh Ghai, and is jointly, produced by Sohel Maklai Productions and Asylum Films and co-produced by Qyuki Digital Media.
