denying
denying
that
they
harassed
Kangana
Ranaut,
the
Karina
Sena
on
Saturday
came
out
and
said
that
if
Kangana
continues
to
voice
dissent
against
them,
they
would
ruin
her
career
prospects

Kangana
Ranaut
made
a

"Four
historians
have
certified
Manikarnika,
we
have
got
censor
certificate
as
well,
Karni
Sena
has
been
conveyed
this
but
they
are
continuing
to
harass
me.
If
they
don't
stop
then
they
should
know
I
am
also
a
Rajput
and
I
will
destroy
each
one
of
them."

Kangana

she
continues
to
threaten
the

let
her
walk
freely
in
Maharashtra
and
will
burn

in

reportedly
written
to

Jhansi
Laxmibai
is
in
anyway
insulted
in
the
film,
or

image
maligned
in
any
way,
the
filmmakers
would
have
to
face
consequences.After
these
reports
started
making
rounds,
Kangana
told
an
entertainment
website,
"Four
historians
have
certified
Manikarnika,
we
have
got
censor
certificate
as
well,
Karni
Sena
has
been
conveyed
this
but
they
are
continuing
to
harass
me.
If
they
don't
stop,
then
they
should
know
I
am
also
a
Rajput
and
I
will
destroy
each
one
of
them."
Karni
Sena
became
infamous
after
protesting
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
Padmaavat.
But
Karni
Sena
denied
protesting
against
Manikarnika
on
Friday.
Speaking
to
India
Today,
the
chief
of
Karni
Sena,
Lokendra
Singh
Kalvi
said,
"It
is
from
yesterday
that
I
am
hearing
of
this,
that
Karni
Sena
is
protesting
against
Manikarnika:
The
Queen
Of
Jhansi.
Before
this,
I
never
even
heard
of
this
film.
Even
at
the
time
of
the
Padmaavat
protests,
some
people
claiming
to
be
from
the
Karni
Sena
took
Rs
10-20
lakh
from
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
team.
You
can
ask
them.
They
will
not
tell
you
on
the
record,
but
Karni
Sena
ke
naam
se
kuch
log
paise
kha
gaye
the."
Manikarnika
is
based
on
the
life
of
the
warrior
queen
Jhansi
Laxmibai,
when
she
rebelled
against
the
British
crown.
Starring
Kangana
Ranaut
playing
the
titular
role,
the
movie
will
have
a
Republic
Day
release
on
January
25th,
2019.
