3:04Now PlayingAfter Smriti Irani opposed mandatory period leave and said menstruation is not a handicap, actress Kangana Ranaut recently shared her take on the union minister's remark. Taking to her Instagram, the 'Queen' actress, known for speaking her heart and mind out fearlessly, penned, 'Working woman is a myth, there has not been a single non-working woman in the history of mankind.' She added, 'From farming to house chores to raising kids, women have always been working and nothing has come in the way of their commitment to their families or community or nation.' While agreeing with Smriti Irani, Kangana concluded, 'Unless it is some specific medical condition, women don't need paid leaves for periods, please understand, it is periods, not some illness or handicap.' Earlier, Smriti Irani had said in Rajya Sabha, 'As a menstruating woman, menstruation and the menstruation cycle is not a handicap, it’s a natural part of women’s life journey…We should not propose issues where women are denied equal opportunities just because somebody who does not menstruate has a particular viewpoint towards menstruation.' Meanwhile, on the work front, Kangana, who was last seen in 'Tejas', will next be starring in 'Emergency' in which she plays the character of the former Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi.
