Kangana Ranaut says she prefers to abstain from social media because it is very 'consuming,' reported news agency IANS. Kangana, 31, who was speaking at the sidelines of her appearance for a television show had said, "I am not on social media for many reasons and one of them is that I feel it's so consuming. People tell me, open an account because some of them can be brand queries, and they want you on social media; it's mandatory," IANS quoted her as saying. The
Queen star also said she doesn't find the need to be on 'it' just for the sake and let someone else handle it on her behalf, which would mean 'being dishonest' with her fans.
"Sometimes your agents tell you just open an account and don't post, or let us post. That's not okay with me, because I have not done anything in my life where I am not involved. I can't imagine the fact that I am being dishonest on some level that someone else is pretending to be me. I am faking that with millions of people and its sort of having a fake relationship," Kangana told IANS.
Kangana's sister and manager Rangoli Chandel often shares an update
on former's life, films and appearances through her social media accounts. She recently shared an adorable picture of her son Prithvi Raj with his aunt Kangana on Twitter and captioned it, "....... on a sunshine day!!!"
