Kangana Ranaut has defended Trisha Krishnan, the actress from the Tamil film industry, amidst the controversy related to her and politician-actor Vijay. Talking to the media after the DISHA meeting in Kullu, Kangana has criticised the manner in which women are often abused and attacked in terms of character when controversies about their personal lives come out into the open.
Without mentioning Trisha's name directly, she stated that, "It is always the woman who gets targeted," suggesting that women are often more harshly criticised compared to men even when two people are involved in the issue.
