A video of Kangana Ranaut riding a mechanical horse, from the sets of her recently-released film Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi is doing the rounds on social media, for which the actress is being trolled incessantly. A section of the Internet trolled Kangana for using a mechanical horse instead of a real one. A Twitter user shared the video and wrote: "Wow! that escalated fast." Another comment read: "Had me dying especially the part when actress hollered the war cry." Now, Rangoli Chandel, who seemed reasonably upset with the trolls, came to her sister's rescue and explained that the mechanical horse is used for shooting close up shots and that it has been used to shoot sequences in films such as Gladiator, The Last Samurai and Braveheart. "How else do you take close up on a galloping horse, this is called a mechanical horse and used in movies like Gladiator, The Last Samurai and Braveheart. Only for the close ups. Dumb people get excited to see technology," read Rangoli Chandel's tweet.

Trolls aside, some fans supported Kangana. A fan shared a video, in which the Queen actress could be seen riding a real horse. "Some losers having no knowledge and are trying to humiliate Kangana Ranaut. In Manikarnika, Kangana has done all the stunts herself."
