New Delhi: Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is known for speaking up her mind and 'standing up for herself'. The 'Queen' actress made her debut as a host this year with Ekta Kapoor's digital reality show 'Lock Upp', that has been achieving positive response from viewers.


Recently, the actress took to her Instagram to hail herself as the 'Superstar Host' and called out several popular actors who tried their hands at hosting in the past as 'Failed' hosts. Kangana called out superstars Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Akshay Kumar and Ranveer Singh as 'failed' hosts, and pointed out that only Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and she herself have been successful hosts so far.


On Monday, Kangana took to her Instagram stories and wrote, "Many successful actors have tried their hands at hosting like SR, Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra and Ranveer Singh....they may have successful careers but they failed at hosting, they are unsuccessful hosts, so far only Shri Amitabh Bachchan ji, Salman Khan ji and Kangana Ranaut have achieved this glory to be a super star host...privileged to be in this league....I wish I didn't have to state the obvious but jealous movie mafia is doing everything to discredit me and my show so I had to do the needful and I don't mind...if I can stand up for everyone else I can stand up for myself also...it is wonderful to be the only successful host of my generation. #LockUpp."
