Trouble seems to be mounting for Kangana Ranaut every passing day. After a Twitter showdown with Diljit Dosanjh, the actress was slapped with another legal notice by the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee. The DSGMC sent a legal notice to the actress over her tweets during the ongoing farmers protests. The actress had mistakenly identified an elderly Sikh woman as Bilkis Bano of Shaheen Bagh and said that she was merely protesting for Rs 100 a day.

Taking to Twitter, Manjinder Singh Sirsa, president of DSGMC, tweeted, "We have sent a legal notice to @KanganaTeam for her derogatory tweet calling the aged mother of a farmer as a woman available for ₹100. Her tweets portray farmers protest as antinational. We demand an unconditional apology from her for her insensitive remarks on farmers protest."

Lagta hai mujhe mahan banake he dum lenge. Thank you."
