On Wednesday, while having a conversation on the Times Now summit, Kangana Ranaut said, "Our ceremonies were at different times. I think they went out of their way to keep us on different timings...I tried to spot him around but he was not there." When asked if she would have spoken to Karan, Kangana replied, "Of course" and continued, "There can be conflicts, there can be disagreements but it does not mean you do not believe in coexistence. That is what I believe in, coexistence. I encourage the coexistence of all kinds."

Kangana also said, "Some of the people who walked in and took their honor, made me feel so insignificant. Some of them were so simplistic and enormous in their presence. When they were introduced, I felt a sense of not being enough. Very rarely do I get that feeling. To witness such people taking their awards... I felt, am I good enough?"

A few days ago, remembering an old incident, Kangana shared a video where she was seen ignoring Karan on the stage during an award function. In the video, Karan, hosting the awards ceremony, announced, "This award has been decided by a public poll and I have been winning it for the past three years.” Then Kangana was declared the winner as she came to receive her award.

The things between the two got sour after Kangana called Karan the ‘flag-bearer of nepotism’ and ‘movie mafia' in 2017 on his own show Koffee with Karan.
