Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone since trailer of the movie ‘Padmavati’ had been to the receiving end of death threats from the Karni Sena and politician as well. With the motion her epic historical drama ‘Padmavati’ has been facing from the fringe groups. While Bollywood has come out in support of the actress and Shabani Azmi has even started a movement called Deepika Bachao urging people from the industry to sign a substance for the Piku actress, Kangana Ranaut is in no mood to back up actress Deepika Padukone.

When another Bollywood actress Kangana was approached by Shabana to sign the substance seeking support for Deepika, the Queen actress refused instantly. A source in a report has been quoted as saying, "Kangana refused point-bank. She said an instantly no to signing the Deepika Bachao content, much to Shabana’s shock and annoyance." Kangana and Deepika have had a history of hostility. Their relationship had hit a rough patch when in 2014, Deepika won award for her performance in Happy New Year and dedicated it to Kangana for her performance in Queen.

While one would have expected Kangana to be appreciative of Deepika's gesture, she had reacted to that by saying that she would have preferred if Deepika had personally praised her performance instead of speaking about in public. In a much-publicised interview later, Kangana had said that she and Deepika were not friends, only to make the matter worse.
