World Mental Health Day 2020: Kangana Ranaut Asks Fans To Watch Film; Takes Indirect Dig At Deepika Padukone

World Mental Health Day 2020: Kangana Ranaut took an indirect dig at Deepika Padukone while asking the fans to watch 'Judgementall Hai Kya'.

New Delhi: Kangana Ranaut and Rajkummar Rao starrer 'Judgementall Hai Kya' hogged all the limelight last year ahead of its release. The film was originally titled 'Mental Hai Kya'; however the makers had to change the name after the Indian Psychiatric Society (IPS) objected to the title and filed a complaint to the CBFC. Kangana's spat with a journalist during the song launch event also grabbed eyeballs. Despite the controversies surrounding the flick, 'Judgementall Hai Kya' managed to receive good reviews from the critics and fans. On the occasion of World Mental Health Day, Kangana requested her fans to watch the film. She retweeted a clip from the film and said that the film was made to create awareness about mental health.  The 'Panga' actress took an indirect dig at Deepika Padukone in her tweet. For the uninitiated, Deepika Padukone's 'The Live Love Laugh Foundation' was among the organisations that condemned the title 'Mental Hai Kya'. "The film that we made for Mental Health awareness was dragged to the court by those who run depression ki dukan, after media ban, name of the film was changed just before the release causing marketing complications but it’s a good film, do watch it today #WorldMentalHealthDay," Kangana tweeted.

'Judgemental Hai Kya', which was directed by  Prakash Kovelamudi, collected Rs 44.92 crore at the worldwide box office. The black comedy also starred Jimmy Shergill, Amyra Dastur and Amrita Puri in lead roles. Talking about Kangana Ranaut, the 'Queen' star has resumed shooting for her film 'Thalaivi' after seven long months. She will be seen essaying the role of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa in the much-awaited biopic. The film was slated to hit the silver screens in June 2020; however, it got delayed due to the COVID-19 crisis. Kangana shared pictures with the film's director along with the caption,"These are some stills from yesterday’s early morning scene discussion with my absolutely talented and most affectionate director A.L Vijay ji, there are many amazing places in this world but the most soothing and comforting to me is a film set."
