Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is making headlines again with a recent speech that's gone viral on social media. The actress is energized and enthusiastic as she campaigns in the Mandi Lok Sabha constituency of Himachal Pradesh. Her speech has sparked discussions online after she compared her influence and stature in the film industry to that of Amitabh Bachchan.

In a video clip of her speech, Kangana can be heard saying, "The whole country is surprised that whether I go to Rajasthan, West Bengal, Delhi, or Manipur, it seems like I receive so much love and respect. I can confidently say that after Amitabh Bachchan, who else in the industry receives this much love, it's me."

The comparison drew mixed reactions on social media, with some users expressing disagreement with her remarks.

On the work front, Kangana will be seen in "Emergency," where she portrays the role of former Prime Minister of India, the late Indira Gandhi.
