Rangoli calls Taapsee ‘creepy fan”, deletes a post that reads Taapsee has ‘no talent’

Actress Kangana Ranaut’s sister Rangoli Chandel called Taapsee Pannu a ‘sasti copy (cheap imitation) as she posted a picture styling a saaree with sunglasses. Rangoli took to her Instagram handle and shared a story calling Kangana a ‘great style icon’ while she called Taapsee a ‘creepy fan’ who copies Kangana’s looks.

However, as soon as she posted the story she took it down and went ahead to post a slightly modified version of criticism.

Chandel initially shared a picture of Kangana wearing a saree with sunglasses and captioned, “Kangana is a great style icon to all,” she then posted a collage of sister, Kangana’s picture wearing a saree and wrote, “Her only aim is to inspire women to wear saris and revive our own handloom industry.”

She later shared more pictures of Kangana wherein she was wearing a saree along with sunglasses and wrote, “It gives me great joy to see how young women get inspired and follow her, we all do..” The last story read, “I mean look at her who wouldn’t be inspired by her.”

Rangoli then shared a story consisting of Taapsee’s vacation photo from St. Petersburg, Russia, in which she wore a saree along with sunglasses. The picture shared also included a comment to which Taapsee replied, “time to make sari cool I say!” Rangoli wrote, “But but, to desperately research everything about Kangana as you have no talent of your own, like an obsessed creepy fan and copy not just her quotes, looks, style then to claim to have made sari cool, matlab kuch zayada ho gaya na… or fir kehti ho mujhe sasti copy bola (isn’t that a bit too much? And then you protest about being called a cheap imitation) @taapsee,” this post was later deleted.

Rangoli then posted a slightly modified version of the criticism and wrote, “What is not cool to be a creepy fan who obsessively not just copies every interview and looks style but whole work model but on a small scale and goes on to make unkind and mean remarks about the legend, again today when I see this I wonder copy look ok fine but to claim to be the one who made sari cool hmmm you aren’t getting away with this honey @taapsee.”

In July 2019, Taapsee praised the trailer of “Judgementall Hai Kya” but she didn’t mention Kangana to which Rangoli took offence. Rangoli Chandel then called Taapsee a “sasti copy (cheap imitation)” and tweeted, “Kuch log Kangana ko copy kar ke he apni dukaan chalate hain (Some people run their shop by copying Kangana), magar (but) please note, they never acknowledge her, not even a mention of her name in praising the trailer. Last, I heard Taapseeji said Kangana needs a double filter and Taapseeji you need to stop being a sasti copy.”

Taapsee then slammed her, according to PTI she said, “Those who matter to you, matter to you. For me, she (Kangana) is a very good actress, she was and she still is… But other than this, she doesn’t affect me in my life. It doesn’t affect me, what she says. There are a lot of people saying a lot of things on my Twitter timeline.”
