Hyderabad: Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut on Tuesday took Twitter by surprise when she compared herself with Hollywood legend Meryl Streep. The actor claims of receiving positive response to her self-praise tweets and said those who disagree have failed to engage her in a logical argument.

On February 9, Kangana stated that she is "open for debate if anyone can show me more range and brilliance of craft than me by any other actress on this planet". She made her assertion sharing several images from her upcoming films, Thalaivi and Dhaakad. The photographs show Kangana's physical transformation, when she gained weight for her role in Thalaivi and shed the extra kilos for the action film Dhaakad.

"Massive transformation alert, The kind of range I display as a performer no other actress on this globe has that right now, I have raw talent like Meryl Streep for layered character depictions but I can also do skilled action and glamour like Gal Gadot #Thalaivi #Dhaakad," she wrote.

"I am open for debate if anyone can show me more range and brilliance of craft than me by any other actress on this planet I promise to give up my arrogance, until then I can surely afford the luxury of pride #Thalaivi #Dhaakad," she added.

When netizens questioned her tweets asking 'Why is Kangana so pompous?", the actor wondered why many "worship white people".

The actor ended winded up the debate from her side saying, "Today most of the comments have been encouraging, the ones who didn’t agree with me just bullied or trolled, didn’t give any logical counter argument/proof of somebody’s filmography which shows range and brilliance like mine. So let’s be fair all n all I stand vindicated, thanks."

Meanwhile, Richa Chadha seemed just as amused by actor Ranaut's tweets as the rest of Twitter. The actor who has worked with Kangana in Panga, took a sly gid at by sharing a checklist for identifying sociopaths and narcissistic personality disorder.

Earlier Kangana called Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg dumb and a spoilt brat and international pop sensation Rihanna a porn singer, a porn star, and a Left Wing role model for tweeting in favour of the farmers' protest in India.
