"It's only 'cause you play villain that I can be a hero": Kangana takes a jibe at Uddhav, after Bombay HC quashes BMC's demolition notice

For quite sometime now, actress Kangana Ranaut and the ruling Maharashtra government has been involved in a bitter fight. It all started after the actress called Mumbai unsafe, nd compared it to Pakistan-Ocuppied Kashmir. After the comment's went viral, BMC swung into action, to demolish Kangana's office plush space in Bandra citing 'illegalities' in the structure. Today, the Bombay High Court quashed this demolition notice by the BMC and instructed the actress to go ahead and restore her office space to make it habitable. The court has also directed the appointment of a valuer to determine the compensation payable to the actress for the demolition of her property, reported Bar and Bench.  

Kangana was ecstatic about her victory as she took to Twitter to share the big news. Calling it a victory of democracy, Kangana tweeted, "When individual stands against the government and wins, it’s not the victory of the individual but it’s the victory of the democracy. Thank you everyone who gave me courage and thanks to those who laughed at my broken dreams. Its only cause you play a villain so I can be a HERO." The actress had challenged the BMC's demolition notice and even mentioned in her plea that items worth crores including paintings and books were destroyed by the BMC.  According to reports, the Court ruled that there was ‘no unauthorised construction’ as alleged by the BMC on Ranaut's property. The court’s finding was that it was only existing work that was being done as opposed to the alleged ‘illegal alterations’. The Bench of Justices SJ Kathawalla and RI Chagla concluded that the BMC’s demolition drive at the actress’ office was as action with “malafide intent. ”The court also stated that a valuer will be appointed to ascertain damages caused due to demolition. The valuer will submit a report to the court after which it will pass an order on compensation to Kangana.
