While Kangana is yet to respond to the controversy, she has managed to get the support of veteran actors like Anupam Kher, Paresh Rawal and director Madhur Bhandarkar who worked with Kangana in the film ‘Fashion.’
Taking to Twitter, Anupam Kher wrote, “How much venom this man has against a self made actress #KanganaRanaut!! This is called ‘acting’ idiot. Actors all over the world do that. That is their job. She will be remembered for decades for her hard work in movies. While you got your fifteen minute fame by using her name.”

Kangana’s sister, Rangoli Chandel came to her defense schooling the trollers about their technical knowledge of filmmaking.
How else do you take close up on a galloping horse, this is called a machanical horse and used in movies like Gladiator, The last Samurai, Brave heart and Manikarnika 😂… only for the close ups ….dumb people get excited to see technology… Dumbos !!! 😆 https://t.co/ECDDGvZZlr

Madhur Bhandarkar added in his interview that there are many technicalities while filming and every actor has stunt doubles, as well as VFX, is used in the making of films. “Kangana definitely has ridden the horse in the film. But there are close up shots..and you have to take care of that and shoot in that manner also.”
Following this, Kangana supporters and fans have also shared videos of her horse-riding and sharing tweets about how she is being made a soft target.

If that’s what you like. But it’s not okay to say she didn’t work hard or she didn’t ride real horses. pic.twitter.com/JkLCQmZYRR
