Centre approves Y-plus category security cover for Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut
Actress Kangana Ranaut, on Monday, took to Twitter to thank Home Minister Amit Shah, for providing her with Y+ security cover after she spoke about the alleged drug use in Bollywood over the death of Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput.
In a tweet, Ranaut said, "This shows that no one can crush a patriot in the country. I am thankful to Home Minister Amit Shah."
"Had he (Amit Shah) wanted, he would have told me to visit Mumbai later but he respected India's daughter and acknowledged my self-respect. Jai Hind," Ranaut tweeted.

The Y+ category central cover entails deployment of about 10 armed commandos with the protectee.
Meanwhile, on Monday, the BMC officials had landed up at Kangana's Pali Hill office in Bandra. The actress took to Twitter to share videos of the officials at her office writing, "They have forcefully taken over my office measuring everything, also harassing my neighbors. I am informed tomorrow they are demolishing my property."

Earlier, it was being speculated that the Himachal Pradesh government will provide security to Ranaut on her arrival to Mumbai, after the actress alleged that she was receiving threats from the Shiv Sena and its supporters.
The controversy had erupted when Ranaut, who had been vocal about the demise of Rajput, had criticised the Mumbai Police over their investigation into Rajput's death and said that she feared the city police force more than the 'movie mafia'.
Raut, was quick to respond to Ranaut's comments and said that Ranaut should not come back to Mumbai. "We kindly request her not to come to Mumbai. This is nothing but an insult to Mumbai police. The Home Ministry should take action over it,” Raut had written.
Responding to Raut's statement, Ranaut responded to him with a tweet, comparing Maharashtra to 'Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir', alleging that Raut had threatened her and asked her not to come back to Mumbai.

Soon, a video of Raut, passing disparaging remarks about Ranaut in an interview to a news channel went viral which drew massive flak for the actress' fans. Ranaut, soon, released a video slamming Raut, calling him 'anti-women' and saying that 'he is not Maharashtra'.

Calling his mindset "anti-women", she questioned why his abusive remark -- made during a television interview yesterday -- was directed only at her and not actors Aamir Khan or Naseeruddin Shah, who also said at some point that they were scared to live in Mumbai.
The Centre's move to provide Y-plus level security to the actress comes after she announced that will be coming to Mumbai on September 9 and will also post the time when she lands at the airport.

While Ranaut doesn’t shy away from commenting on issues she feels strongly about, recently the ‘Manikarnika’ actress has been receiving flak from a section of the media.
However, it’s not just Ranaut’s statements that have come under scrutiny, but also that of her sister and manager, Rangoli Chandel. Chandel’s tweets often slamming anyone and everyone in Bollywood, have received criticism. Several fans have even taken to the microblogging site to say that Rangoli, whose Twitter bio reads 'Manager & Sister to #KanganaRanaut' may be harming the 'Queen' star's image and overshadowing her work. some have even requested the actress to hire a professional publicist.

Queen Bey and her father-manager Mathew Knowles's fallout was the stuff of headlines. While the 67-year-old now claims that he shares a good relationship with both his daughters, Beyoncé and Solange, after having learnt to switch from manager to father, it wasn't always the case. Mathew not only managed 'Destiny's Child' but reportedly also trained three members to sing.
Mathew was around right from the beginning of Beyoncé's career, until over a decade later when on March 28 in 2011 the 'Sorry' singer announced that the duo were going their separate ways, and the decision was mutual.
Since the split, the singer has been managed by her own company, Parkwood Entertainment.
