Hyderabad: On Saturday, Kangana Ranaut took to social media to lash out at Karan Johar over his latest directorial venture Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.

The actor also shared a piece of advice for Ranveer in her latest social media post.
Karan Johar directed Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani hit the big screens on July 28. The film opened with Rs 11.50 crore nett in India but has to grow stronger over the weekend. While buzz in the trade is positive around RRKPK, Kangana is seemingly not impressed with Karan's directorial prowess.
Ranaut who shares a long history o animosity with Karan, launched a fresh attack on the filmmaker via social media. Taking to Instagram Stories, Kangana slammed KJo's film which she said is made on a budget of Rs 250 crore but is nothing more than a television drama. The actor also asked Karan to step down from the director's chair and make way for young filmmakers to make coming-of-age films.
In another Instagram Story, Kangana doled out unsolicited advice to Ranveer over his "Karan Johar influenced" dressing sense. Taking a dig at Ranveer over his flamboyant sense of style, Kangan asked him to seek inspiration from yesteryear stars like Dharmendra and the late Vinod Khanna. "Indian people can't identify with a cartoon looking person calling himself a hero," wrote Kangana in her Instagram Story which also heaped praise on leading men from the south for carrying themselves with "great dignity and integrity."
For unversed, this is not the first time Kangana has lashed out at Karan and people close to him. Time and again, the multiple National Award-winning actor keeps making headlines for taking jibes at KJo and people from filmy families whom she has been calling "nepo gang" for a long.
