Kangana Ranaut and Baba Ramdev have called a truce on Raksha Bandhan, ending a weeks-long public spat. The actor shared a video on her Instagram stories of Ramdev expressing a desire to resolve their differences, and wrote that festivals are meant for forgetting mistakes. She accepted his gesture, calling him a 'big brother' and thanking him.
The feud began when Ramdev criticised Kangana's remark about the 'Gen Z is Gutter generation', asking about her past. Kangana then accused him of crossing 'every boundary of decency' and brought up the Supreme Court case against his Patanjali brand for false efficacy claims. In his video message, Ramdev said any dispute should be resolved by dialogue and there should be no hatred in the nation.
Indian Opinion Analysis
This public reconciliation follows a pattern of celebrity feuds being resolved on Indian festivals, which offer a culturally resonant moment to bury differences. The original clash pitted two polarising public figures: Kangana, a vocal actor and BJP MP, against Ramdev, a yoga guru whose Patanjali empire has faced multiple court battles over misleading advertisements. The Supreme Court had in 2023 censured Patanjali for continuing to publish claims about curing diseases despite assurances to stop. By ending the spat, both avoid further legal or reputational damage ahead of any fresh court hearings.
