Now, Kangana Rananut has taken to her Instagram handle to defend Neena’s statement. Kangana questioned the ‘extreme reaction’ towards Neena’s statement and said that she believes no one is equal.
She said, “I don’t know why so much extreme reaction to what Neena ji said, man and woman can never be same, they are so evidently and obviously different on every level, are they equal? Forget man and woman, no one is equal, each one of us is on a different level of evolution, that’s why we have Gods, gurus, seniors, parents or even bosses.
Some have more experience or some are actually more evolved but we are not equal on any level.”

Elaborating further, she added, ““Do we need a man? Of course, just how a man needs a woman, my mother’s life would have been miserable if she had to live alone all by herself without my father but my father won’t have a life at all without her, I don’t know what is whole shaming about!! Do men men have it better? Obviously they don’t bleed seven days a month and they do not exude divine feminine energy that everyone’s thirsty for, they want to steal, control or suppress it, boys are not unsafe every where even in their own houses or open streets, come on of course they have it better, it’s not easy for women, especially young women, please let’s stop pretending otherwise.”
In a conversation with Ranveer Allahabadia on his podcast, Neena conveyed that she doesn’t necessarily endorse the belief in the concept of complete equality between men and women. She expressed the idea that focusing on “useless feminism” or the notion that “women are equal to men” may not be necessary. Instead, Neena emphasized the importance of achieving financial independence and giving due attention to one’s work. She advocated for recognizing the significance of being a housewife without belittling the role, encouraging individuals to boost their self-esteem and avoid considering themselves as small. Neena underscored her main message as concentrating on personal empowerment. Additionally, she pointed out the inherent differences between men and women, humorously mentioning that true equality would only exist on the day men start getting pregnant.
