It is suspected that her post was deleted because she had referred to Covid-19 as a ‘small time flu’.

Recently, an FIR was registered against Ranaut as well for one of her Instagram stories where she had criticised West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for the outbreak of post-poll violence in the state.

The complaint the FIR was based on stated, “Ms Ranaut has posted several posts from her verified official Instagram handle bearing url: httpa://instagram.com/kanganaranaut?igshid=2yruw6zd7j in the ‘Story’ section. She has also distorted and maligned the image of the Hon’ble Chief Minister of West Bengal – Smt. Mamata Banerjee. Hence she is to be charged against hate propaganda to incite violence in West Bengal.”

Kangana Ranaut had referred to Mamata Banerjee as a demoness and compared her to Tadaka from the Ramayana.
