Mumbai:Actor-producer Kangana Ranaut has responded to a Mumbai court's ordered to the city police to investigate a complaint against her and her sister Rangoli Chandel for spreading communal hatred and falsehoods, officials said here on Saturday.
Hours after the news of probe plaint against her made headline, Kangana took to her official Twitter handle to share pictures of Navaratri celebration and in the same breath took a jibe at "Maharashtra's Pappu sena."
"Who all are fasting on Navratris? Pictures clicked from today’s celebrations as I am also fasting, meanwhile another FIR filed against me, Pappu sena in Maharashtra seems to be obsessing over me, don’t miss me so much I will be there soon Red heart#Navratri," wrote Kangana alongside a set of three pictures.
As reported earlier, a Mumbai court has ordered the city police to investigate a complaint against Kangana and her sister Rangoli Chandel for spreading communal hatred and falsehoods. The order by Bandra 12th Court Magistrate Jaidev Ghule came in a plea by Munawwarali alias Sahil A Sayyed, a Bollywood casting director, said his lawyer Ravish F Zamindar.

Among other things, Sayyed accused Kangana and Rangoli of defaming Bollywood, portraying people working in it in a bad light with claims of nepotism, drug addiction, communal bias, attempting to create a rift between artistes of different communities, insulting religions, calling them murderers etc on social media and through public statements.
Sayyed also accused them of creating a Hindu-Muslim divide through objectionable comments, citing Rangoli's "make the mullas and secular media stand in line and shoot them down; the history may call us Nazis, who cares' remarks.
When he tried to complain to the Bandra police on September 16, Sayyed claimed, police refused to entertain his complaint after which he sent another one to Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone XI) a fortnight later, pointing out alleged lapses of the Bandra police.
Moving the Bandra court on Thursday, Sayyed prayed for appropriate directions under Section 156 (3) of the CrPC to the Bandra police to register a first information report against the two sisters under the IPC.
