Rangoli Chandel has once again lashed out at Karan Johar for his style of filmmaking criticizing the Kuch Kuch Hota Hai director for his film 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.' Taking to her Twitter, Rangoli wrote, "Last time Kangana saw KJO film ADHM, she was furious she told me cancer patient ki chemotherapy chal rahi hai phir bhi stalker creepy ladka jabardasti karta hai aur usse kehta hai, ab toh meri ho ja ab toh tujhe cancer hai, Kangana was in shock for a long time, KJO ji agar aisi scripts lekar aaoge toh aapko Bhagwan bhi nahin bacha sakta, please Kangana se door raho, sabki bhalai isi mein hai."
Rangoli's tweet was in response to Kjo expressing his wish to work with Kangana in the future. In a interview to Mumbai Mirror Karan said, “As a filmmaker, I respect Kangana’s talent, craft, and what she brings to the table. She is an actor who has proved her mettle and is deserving of the honour. Tomorrow, if I have a film for which I need Kangana, I will pick up the phone and call her. Whatever the problem, whatever may have been said on social media, is irrelevant to me. I’m a filmmaker and she’s an artiste and no amount of personal bias should come in the way of that relationship. I believe in that and will stand by it.”
Revealing that in person things are different, Karan told Mumbai Mirror, "So much has been said about Kangana, me and some kind of rivalry or simmering tension. However, at every public event we have met, we have greeted each other graciously. Whatever may have been said or insinuated in print, I think I am too old and wise to hold any kind of malice in my heart for anybody." It was only recently that Kangana and Karan were announced as recipients of the prestigious Padmashri Award. While Kangana said in a statement that Kjo deserves the honour even though his father provided him with a headstart.
