Ajay Devgan and Kichcha Sudeep's brief Twitter argument regarding latter's statement that Hindi is not the national language anymore has compelled several stars to share their opinion on this matter. Recently, actress Kangana Ranaut also addressed this issue while speaking at the trailer launch event of her film 'Dhaakad'.

Acknowledging India's vast cultural and linguistic diversity, Kangana stated, "We (system and society) are a country of a lot of diversities, languages, and cultures. And it is our birthright to feel proud of our respective culture and language. I am a Pahadi. However, when we consider our nation, in order to make it one unit, we need a thread to connect all of us together. When the constitution was made, Hindi became a national language."

The actress then advocated the idea that Sanskrit should've been India's language instead of Hindi. She said, "And now when you say Tamil is actually older than Hindi, it should be noted that Sanskrit is older than that. In my opinion, Sanskrit should be our national language, because Kannada, Tamil, Gujarati, Hindi, all these languages originated from Sanskrit."

Kangana further added, "I do not have the answer if you ask me if so, why Sanskrit wasn’t made our national language instead of Hindi. Those decisions would have been made during a certain time. There are a lot of layers to this issue. And when you are talking about language, you should be aware of all these layers. When you deny Hindi, you are denying the constitution and the government of Delhi."
