Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut Friday said hopes to see a society which does not need feminism, after clarifying the fact that she is not a ‘man-hater’.
The National Award-winning actress was present in Mumbai at the Jagran Cinema Summit. During an interaction session here, she was asked about her opinion on feminism and why some people called her a 'man-hater' after her fiery interviews in the last couple of weeks.
In response to that, Kangana said: "No, I am not a man-hater for sure... I think feminism is something... a sorry state to be in any society. The gender equality should be there, where feminism doesn't need to act like a medicine on inequality.
"We should not have feminists, we shouldn't have all these things... We shouldn't have feminism in society."
Kangana has always made some unusual choices in films -- be it "Fashion", "Tanu Weds Manu", "Queen" or "Simran" -- and how bold she is about making statements on her struggles in her personal and professional life.
Asked about her courage, Kangana said: "See, a person's opinion shouldn't have to do anything with her profession. My profession should not determine my voice as an individual. I think before an actress, I am a woman and a citizen of this country with a free voice, and my voice should be free from all baggage."
