Public sensitivity is crucial to consider, as it can lead to public outrage, as seen in the incident involving Kangana Ranaut at Chandigarh Airport.
Recall the farmers' protest and Kangana Ranaut's "100 rupees" comment, which sparked a controversy. She tweeted about the protest, sharing a photo of Mahinder Kaur, an elderly farmer woman from Bhatinda, and allegedly made a remark that women like Mahinder Kaur are available for 100 rupees.

Mahinder Kaur filed a defamation complaint against Kangana Ranaut in January 2021. In 2022, a Bhatinda judicial court summoned Kangana Ranaut to appear. Although she attempted to quash the complaint, the high court intervened, stating it had 'no merit'.
This incident highlights the importance of balancing free speech with public sensitivity.
