Actress Kangana Ranaut feels celebrities should not be bothered about clarifying their stand after giving statements on the current issues.
Recently a string of Bollywood A-listers including Karan Johar, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan had to bore the brunt of outrage after they expressed their opinion on controversial matter like intolerance.
"The way you have expressed something and the way others have received, perceived, consumed, assessed and utilised is definitely going to be different depending on their outlook towards life.
"So, that much liberty we should take. We should be thick skinned as that helps environment. People have loads of contradictory opinions, oppositions and neuro criticism. It is actually perfect to have contradicting opinion and there is nothing wrong in that," Kangana told reporters here when asked whether celebrities should speak on national matters
The "Queen" star, who was in the capital to inaugurate a table reservation app by Big Fish Ventures, said people can have different perspective.
"I feel that when someone says something or speaks something, it definitely goes through many filters, it is not that they want to reconstruct or distort it, its just that the other person's perspective is going to be different," she said.

The actress is not on social media and said she does not want to be a part of it as she is a private person.
"We welcome the move. It has taken so long for them to
take this basic first step. Recording of statement is the first step in any investigative process. A lot of delay and drama has happened before this first step," they said.
"It's not for them to say if police are happy with them or not, let that come from the investigative agencies. Let's not try and confuse the matter further with various statements. Let the investigation speak for itself."
The two actors have been at loggerheads since the "Queen" star called Hrithik her 'silly ex'.
Their feud turned nasty after they slapped legal notices on each other.
Hrithik, who was the first to send the legal notice, has demanded that she apologise in a press conference and clear the air about their alleged affair which he firmly refutes.
Kangana said she was not a "dim-witted" teenager and refused to apologise. She instead shot off a counter-notice to Hrithik demanding that he take back his notice or face a criminal case.
