Shashi Tharoor wishes 'all Indian women to be as empowered' as Kangana Ranaut; here's why
Kangana Ranaut had expressed her disagreement with Kamal Haasan’s idea of recognising house work done by homemakers as a salaried profession.
Author and politician Shashi Tharoor wrote a response to Kangana Ranaut on Twitter after her tweets to his call for making homemaking a salaried profession.
Kangana had tweeted on Tuesday, "Don’t put a price tag on sex we have with our love, don’t pay us for mothering our own, we don’t need salary for being the Queens of our own little kingdom our home,stop seeing everything as business. Surrender to your woman she needs all of you not just your love/respect/salary."
To this Shashi Tharoor replied on Wednesday saying, "I agree w/ @KanganaTeam that there are so many things in a homemaker’s life that are beyond price. But this is not about those things: it’s about recognising the value of unpaid work & also ensuring a basic income to every woman. I’d like all Indian women to be as empowered as you!"

Earlier on Tuesday, Tharoor had supported Kamal Haasan’s tweet and had said, "This will recognise & monetise the services of women homemakers in society, enhance their power& autonomy & create near-universal basic income."
Kangana had later also tweeted to a user saying, calling 'the idea of paying someone and making them into an 'employee' a 'painful' thought.
Kangana later patted herself on the back for believing that she could hold conversations on an overabundance of topics. "Lot of people are jealous of my ability to debate on almost any topic how I peel psychological layers of my opponents and penetrate like X ray in to any subject. Don’t be jealous or angry try and sharpen your intellect and really truly invest yourself in your surroundings," she had written.
