Samantha Supports Kangana, Whats Up!

Recently, Kangana Ranaut's sister Rangoli Chandel blasted on Manikarnika co-director Krish as a response to his remarks about the actress taking credit as the primary director of the film. She once again hit back at the filmmaker saying everything is on record and it will take minutes to burst his bubble. She claimed that Kangana shot 70 per cent of the film and if Krish could prove otherwise, the actress is ready to apologize to him.

Interestingly, while almost entire Tollywood is supporting its support to Krish who is busy giving interviews to national media to explain how Kangana ditched him, Telugu actress Samantha lent her support to Kangana Ranaut.

What’s more interesting that, she posted a tweet tagging Kangana’s sister Rangoli who is continuously taking on Krish over his remarks on the Manikarnika actress. “@Rangoli_A It has been 2 days and I can’t get her performance out of my mind... The only explanation I can give myself is that she must have been ‘possessed ‘ it couldn’t have been an act it just couldn’t . Please congratulate her and tell her she has our greatest support,” tweeted Samantha.

Nobody would have felt had Samantha didn’t tag anyone or she mentioned one or two words about Krish. But, she unnecessarily invited controversy with her tweet which showers praises on Kangana, but nobody else.
