Some of the videos of Saloni Gaur were renditions of Kangana Ranaut due to which the comedian has faced backlash from the actress on her social media. Addressing Kangana’s tweets, she told Hindustan Times, “We haven’t met but Kangana knows about it (my rendition). She lashed out at me a couple of times on social media. But that was fine. I really enjoyed reading what she wrote. I respect her for her acting skills; she’s wonderful. I don’t care about what she says because those are her personal belief system.”
Not just Kangana Ranaut, but her fans have also trolled Saloni Gaur for mimicking the Thalaivi actresses. Talking about the same, she adds, “I can stop doing these videos, any day any minute. I might mimic her but it’s me who call the shots since I write the scripts. People know me because of Nazma Aapi. If people troll me in a funny way, I don’t mind it. I’m not someone who cribs if people pick on me. Itna bahot criticism toh chalta hai.”
Lastly, talking about breaking her comic image after making her acting debut in an OTT show titled, Campus Diaries, she said, “What I’ve done so far is has largely been comedy. I did a satire show before. My sketches have also been comical. People haven’t seen me doing anything else apart from comedy. When I came to know that I’m supposed to play a relatively serious character who is rebellious, I thought it would be challenging. Hopefully, I’ll get more opportunities to act now.”
