Kangana wrote, “Thalaivi digital rights are with Amazon (Tamil) and Netflix (Hindi) none of them can individually stream the movie before theatres release, all the fake propaganda movie mafia doing please ignore. Thalaivi deserves a theatrical release and makers are determined, strict actions will be taken against any bikau media spreading fake propaganda.”
Kangana seemed to be mocking Alia’s ‘bad acting’ in Gangubai Kathiawadi as she wrote, “Bikau media write about ‘the film’ whose trailer was hugely criticised and mocked for bad acting and wrong casting of chota bachcha as gangster and is now being dumped on digital platform. Write about ‘the film’ which is being dumped on digital as they have the reality check that the film is a mistake, I don’t see enough news about that…”

Earlier, Kangana’s sister Rangoli Chandel shared a screenshot of a news report saying that Sanjay Leela Bhansali was considering an OTT release for Gangubai Kathiawadi. “To hide this... @aliabhatt,” she wrote. She also shared screenshots of reports speculating that Thalaivi might skip a theatrical release and wrote, “They will spread this, it's a lie dont believe. Nepo mafia PR, thalaivi is coming in theatres. Nepotism mafia stop fake propaganda, bikau media stop selling yourself, thalaivi in theatres.”
