Kangana Ranaut's "100 rupees" comment on the farmers' protest got her into a debacle. She tweeted about the protest and shared a photograph of Mahinder Kaur, an elderly farmer woman from Bhatinda.
Ranaut allegedly made a remark noting that women like Mahinder Kaur are available for 100 rupees.
Following this, Mahinder Kaur filed a defamation complaint against Kangana Ranaut in January 2021. A Bhatinda judicial court summoned Kangana Ranaut to appear in 2022.
The national award-winning actress attempted to quash the complaint, but the high court intervened, showcasing 'no merit'.
