Mumbai: Kangana Ranaut's father Amardeep Ranaut feels that his daughter's struggle is for the truth in the context of the larger battle between good and evil. Her mission is like that of Lord Shri Krishna telling Arjuna, in the battlefield of Kurukshetra for Mahabharata, whenever there is a decay of righteousness and rise in evil, then the Lord manifests itself in some form to establish righteousness.

"She is doing the right thing; she is fighting for all the self-made women and for the empowerment of women. That is why the entire country is behind her," Amardeep said confidently.

"I, as a parent, like all other parents, was worried about her welfare and safety. No matter how big or great a child turns out to be, a parent is always concerned and protective of his or her child. But now I am not fretting about it. I understand why her battles are important to her," said her father, who is a native of Bhambla in Mandi, Himachal Pradesh.

Describing his daughter's feistiness and determination, Amardeep told: "She does not spare even her Papa. To make me understand the meaning of her struggle, she shared the private family conversation with public on social media. After seeing the response of the nation, I now understand what this battle is about."

Recently, Kangana shared a video of a family conversation in which her father was anxious over the controversies surrounding his daughter. In the video, Amardeep was heard telling Kangana not to be at loggerheads with anyone.

He was visibly upset after the ruling party of Maharashtra Shiv Sena threatened and abused Kangana over her campaign seeking justice for actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who died in mysterious circumstances in Mumbai, on June 14 this year. The Maharashtra government has been accused of a cover-up in the case, which allegedly is linked to some powerful lobbies and drug mafia in Bollywood.
