Friends say I look like young Hrithik: CJP's Saurav Das jokes after Kangana's post

Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) spokesperson Saurav Das responded humorously to criticisms from BJP MP and actor Kangana Ranaut, who had called him 'useless' and 'unemployed'. In an interview with journalist Barkha Dutt, Das joked that Kangana might have targeted him due to his resemblance to young Hrithik Roshan, as noted by his friends. He emphasized that he had no personal grievances against Kangana and advocated for resolving disputes through dialogue rather than personal attacks. Das criticized Kangana's remarks as 'frustrated' and warned that public figures should be cautious when commenting on Gen-Z, as they are accountable to the public. Despite the tensions, Das expressed openness to engaging in a conversation with Kangana if she wished.

Useless and unemployed: Kangana Ranaut's swipe at CJP spokesperson Saurav Das

BJP MP and actress Kangana Ranaut criticized CJP spokesperson Saurav Das on social media, calling him 'useless and unemployed' and questioning his claim to be a student. This came after Das responded to her previous criticisms of the CJP and its protests, dismissing her influence as a politician. Ranaut defended her own accomplishments, noting she had won two National Awards by the age of 28, while Das is currently 28. She also criticized the CJP-led NEET-UG 2026 protests, calling the protesters' behavior 'puke-inducing' and comparing them to 'cockroaches.' In response, Das argued that younger generations, including Gen Z, have contributed more to the nation than Ranaut and suggested that her political relevance is limited.

Bias read (Center): The article presents both Kangana Ranaut's criticisms of Saurav Das and Das's counterarguments without overtly favoring either side. It includes direct quotes from both individuals and provides background information on their respective positions and careers. There is no clear indication of biased语言

Kangana hits back at CJP's Saurav after his response to her 'generation gutter' remark

Actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut responded sharply to CJP spokesperson Saurav Das after Das criticized her remarks referring to Gen Z protesters as 'Generation Gutter.' In an Instagram post, Kangana questioned Das’ credibility, suggesting he was not a genuine student and mocked his lack of professional accomplishments compared to her own. She highlighted her two National Awards and multifaceted career as an actor, filmmaker, and politician, contrasting it with what she described as Das’ lack of skills or employment. This exchange occurred amid recent protests led by the CJP over allegations of a NEET-UG 2026 exam paper leak, which ended after the government met several of their demands.

Bias read (Conservative): The article presents Kangana Ranaut's sharp critique of CJP spokesperson Saurav Das using dismissive language ('useless') and emphasizes her own credentials to contrast with Das’ perceived shortcomings. While the article reports both sides of the exchange, the framing leans toward validating Kangana
