Kangana Ranaut Calls Herself 'Batman of Showbiz'

In response, Kangana humorously embraced these labels and referred to herself as the "greatest of all time," often abbreviated as GOAT. She drew a parallel between herself and Batman, the iconic vigilante superhero.
Kangana wrote on her Instagram story, "Everyone knows that I am exceedingly blunt and stubborn when it comes to my political views. I am also extremely talented, like the greatest of all time. This is known as being Batman, and I am him."
Kangana Ranaut also shared a video on her Instagram that featured excerpts from interviews with Hansal Mehta and Zeeshan Ayyub, where they discussed her. This indicates that she was addressing their comments directly, using the video clips as evidence in her response.
Hansal Mehta, who had a well-publicized disagreement with Kangana Ranaut during their collaboration on "Simran," acknowledged her exceptional acting skills in a statement to the media. He praised her as a fantastic actress and one of India's most renowned artists, highlighting her outstanding previous work. He also specifically commended Kangana's performance in "Simran" despite the film's commercial performance.
In a rare occurrence, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap also expressed his admiration for Kangana Ranaut. He described her as one of the finest actors in the industry, offering his praise for her remarkable talent. "She is quite sincere when it comes to work, but she has other issues. Nobody can deny her skill. Nobody can take away what she has in herself as an actor or as a genuine creative person, but it is difficult to deal with her," added the director.
Indeed, Kangana Ranaut has had her share of disagreements with fellow celebrities, but she has also received appreciation and support from many in the industry. In recent times, she has been seen more frequently at Bollywood events and gatherings.
