Kangana bungalow demolition was illegal, says HC
Meanwhile, the Bombay High Court has declared the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation's (BMC) action of demolishing part of Kangana Ranaut's bungalow as illegal and said it smacks of malafide intentions.

It also however directed Ranaut to show "restraint" in future while voicing her opinions in public.
