According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film¡¯s collections were reported to be around ?18 crore this weekend, taking the total to a stunning ?92 crore. A blind article published on a portal claims that the box office collection figures were ¡®portrayed to be double¡¯ than the actual figure. Even though it is a blind article with questionable authenticity, Kangana Ranaut shared it on her Instagram story and took a dig at the film's team.

Kangana wrote, ¡°Achcha doodh mein pani to suna tha lekin pani me doodh¡­hmm¡­ kya majbooriyaan rahi hongi becharon ki¡­(Oh, had heard about the trend of diluting milk with water but here water seems to have been diluted with milk¡­. wonder what would¡¯ve been the obligations of these helpless people.)"

The aforementioned blind article hinted at a recent ¡®magnum opus of sorts¡¯ starring an ¡®acclaimed actress¡¯. It further reads that even though the film was said to be a ¡®raging success¡¯, a ¡®trade insider says that the weekend Box Office collection was portrayed to be double than the original figure¡¯.

One look at the article will make it evident that the film in focus is Alia Bhatt¡¯s Gangubai Kathiawadi.

This isn¡¯t the first time that Kangana has mocked Bhansali¡¯s film.

A couple of days back, she, along with her sister Rangoli, had taken a dig at Alia Bhatt. Rangoli had shared a list women-centric Hindi films that collected more than Rs 10 crore in a day. Kangana¡¯s Manikarnika was on the top of the list.

Sharing the list, Rangoli had written, ¡°Papa can buy a lot but the most precious things we need to earn in life on our own." Rangoli also tagged Kangana on her Instagram Story. Responding to her sister, Kangana wrote, ¡°Agree, Rangs.¡±

Even before the release of the film, Kangana had called Alia ¡®papa ki pari¡¯ and a ¡®bimbo¡¯. She had also said that the biggest ¡®drawback of Gangubai Kathiawadi is its wrong casting¡¯. Interestingly, after the film released, Kangana had switched her stance and appreciated the film¡¯s success, calling it crucial for ¡®theatres that are on ventilator¡¯.
