Political sparring usually gets heated. This one got funny. When BJP MP and actor Kangana Ranaut publicly called activist Saurav Das “useless” and “unemployed,” his comeback wasn’t anger — it was a joke about looking like a young Hrithik Roshan.

How the Exchange Started
The row began after Kangana Ranaut posted a series of Instagram Stories criticizing Gen Z protestors and specifically targeting Saurav Das, spokesperson for the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP), calling him “totally useless and unemployed.” Das, in turn, questioned why anyone should take her seriously, pointing out that even members of her own party reportedly don’t always heed her remarks.
Saurav Das’s Response, In His Own Words
Speaking to the press, Das said friends had been messaging him after Kangana’s comments, confused about why she’d singled him out. One friend offered an unexpected theory: that Das might resemble a young Hrithik Roshan. Das called himself “pleasantly surprised” by the comparison — a lighthearted twist, given Kangana’s long-publicized past dispute with the actor.
Das also urged more restraint in public discourse, saying leaders should “speak with maryada” (dignity) rather than resorting to personal jabs, especially when addressing younger generations.

Why It’s Getting Attention
Kangana Ranaut, both an established Bollywood actor and sitting Member of Parliament, has a history of blunt public statements, including a widely covered past dispute with actor Hrithik Roshan. That backstory is exactly what gave Das’s joke its bite — turning a personal insult into a moment that’s since spread across social media.
Das maintained he holds no personal ill will toward Kangana or her party, and said he’d welcome a direct call from her to resolve things through dialogue rather than public sparring.
