Mumbai, Nov 12: Kangana Ranaut on Sonia Gandhi drew attention after the BJP MP criticised the Congress leader’s biography and raised questions about several accounts involving the Gandhi family. Calling the book a “self-goal”, Kangana also took a dig at Rahul Gandhi, saying he had inherited his “self-goal talent” from his mother.
The actress made the remarks through a series of Instagram Stories. She referred to Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination, Maneka Gandhi’s departure from the Gandhi family and Sonia Gandhi’s Indian citizenship. She also made unsubstantiated allegations about alleged Swiss bank accounts.
Kangana Ranaut Calls Sonia Gandhi’s Biography a ‘Self-Goal’
In her first Instagram Story, Kangana wrote: “Sonia Gandhi’s biography is such a self-goal. She explains how she avoided accompanying Rajiv Gandhi on the day of his assassination, citing issues such as tiredness and lethargy. So now we know where Rahul Gandhi got his self-goal talent from — he got it from his mama.”

Kangana Raises Questions About Maneka Gandhi’s Exit
In another Story, Kangana referred to Maneka Gandhi’s departure from the family and Sonia Gandhi’s decision to acquire Indian citizenship.
She wrote: “Rajiv agreed to come back to Mrs Gandhi only on one condition: Maneka must go. It was shocking even for Maneka, especially as it was around this time, after Sanjay’s death, that Sonia Gandhi decided to acquire Indian citizenship after 15 years of living in India.”
Kangana also mentioned Maneka Gandhi’s account that “she and Indira Gandhi were both victims of a third person.”
Questioning who that person was, Kangana wrote: “Who was that third person? A 22-year-old widow, Maneka, was told that she must go and that she could not even sit at the same table as the others. Sonia Gandhi explains in her biography that this was because Maneka had friends in the Opposition.”
She further questioned the circumstances surrounding Maneka Gandhi’s departure, writing: “But everyone knows Rajiv Gandhi was not even interested in politics and was quite open about being forced into the role of Prime Minister. So, who wanted Maneka out?”
Kangana Makes Unsubstantiated Swiss Account Allegations
Kangana also made allegations about Sonia Gandhi’s alleged wealth and Swiss bank accounts. However, she did not provide evidence to support the claims in her posts.
She wrote: “Maneka was shocked because she did not know that everyone else in the family was about to die, and that this was the only way she could be deleted.”
In another post, Kangana questioned how Sonia Gandhi allegedly accumulated wealth, writing: “Without earning a single penny her whole life, how did she become the richest woman in the world in 1991? More than two billion dollars were allegedly parked in her name in Swiss accounts. Wow! After everyone in the family died, how did the supposedly poor, sympathy-seeking Italian widow suddenly become a billionaire? Why doesn’t her biography clarify this?”
