Kangana Ranaut's Twitter suspension has ended.

Currently, Kangana's Twitter handle has over 2.9 million followers and she is following over 270 handles from her account.

Why was Kangana Ranaut's Twitter handle suspended? 

Back in 2021, Kangana Ranaut was making some controversial tweets. She had tweeted about Farmers' protests, West Bengal poll violence and other national issues, which were deemed inflammatory and against the rules of Twitter. According to Twitter's Abusive Behaviour policy, "one may not engage in the targeted harassment of someone, or incite other people to do so or attempt to harass, intimidate, or silence someone else’s voice". Seemingly, Kangana's tweets at that point were in violation of Twitter policies. 

On the movies front, Kangana will be seen in Tejas, where she will portray the role of a fighter pilot. Her debut production, Tiku Weds Sheru, starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur, is also eyeing release this year. Apart from this, she will be seen in Sita: The Incarnation, based on the character from the epic Ramayana.
