# Kangana Ranaut Slams iThrive CEO Over PM Modi Remarks 2026-08-08T08:45:01+00:00 | Politics | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Kangana Ranaut has criticised iThrive founder and CEO Mugdha Pradhan after a video surfaced in which Pradhan threatened to slap Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Ranaut questioned why personal frustrations were being directed at the PM and suggested Pradhan should raise civic issues with local authorities instead of lashing out. The actor also took aim at what she described as death wishes and age-shaming remarks against Modi. Pradhan's Instagram account was deactivated following widespread online backlash. The controversy began when Pradhan defended using profanity against political leaders, calling them 'sexist, old pricky patriarchal' men and saying she felt like slapping them. She then directly told PM Modi, 'One forgiving slap I'll give you if I meet you.' ## Coverage - news.abplive.com Tags: abusive language, iThrive, Kangana Ranaut, Mugdha Pradhan, online backlash, PM Modi Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/kangana-ranaut-slams-ithrive-ceo-over-pm-modi-remarks/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
