Kangana Ranaut's comment was a response to a producer's tweet which read: "Big Congratulations to @iamsrk & @deepikapadukone for the runaway success of #Pathaan!!! It proves 1) Hindu Muslims love SRK equally 2) Boycotts controversies don't harm but help the film 3) Erotica & Good music works 4) India is super secular."

When Kangana heaped praise on Pathaan
Last week, Kangana interacted with the media and said that film like Pathaan should work. The next day, Kangana took her thoughts to Twitter, and wrote, "All those who are claiming Pathan is triumph of love over hate, I agree but whose love over whose hate? Let's be precise, whose is buying tickets and making it a success? Yes, it is India's love and inclusiveness where eighty per cent of Hindus lives and yet a film called Pathan."
During the wrap-up party of her upcoming film Emergency, Kangana Ranaut showered praise on Pathaan.
"Pathaan achha kar rahi hai. Aisi films chalni chahiye aur I feel ki jo hamare Hindi cinema wale piche reh gaye hain, har insaan apne level pe koshish kar raha hai," she told the media. (Pathaan is doing well and such films should work).
