Mumbai: Actor Kangana Ranaut said that if she fails to prove the statements that she made regarding the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, she will return her Padma Shri.
Kangana has been vocal about the powerplay and malpractices that prevail in the Hindi film industry. After Sushant's demise, Kangana had called out blind items that were written about Rajput throughout his career. She also seconded Abhishek Kapoor's statement that behind Sushant's demise was "systematic dismantling of a fragile mind."
The National Award-winning actor in her recent interview with a news channel has revealed that she has received summons by the Mumbai Police and has requested them to send someone to record her statement as she is in Manali. She is yet to hear from them.

"They (Mumbai Police) summoned me, and I asked them too, that I’m in Manali, that you can send somebody to take my statement, but I have not received anything after that. I am telling you, if I have said anything, which I can’t testify, which I can’t prove, and which is not in public domain, I will return my Padma Shri," Kangana said. "I don’t deserve it. I am not that person who will go on record (to make such statements), and everything that I have said is in public domain," she further added.
