On Monday, writer-lyricist Hussain Haidry had shared two tweets of the actor and urged people to report the account.

Many social media users have called Ranaut out for spreading hatred.
The actor also posted a video on Instagram where she termed the silence of the liberal international media on Bengal violence their "conspiracy against India" . Ranaut is also active on Facebook.
