Actor Kangana Ranaut has become the latest celebrity to join the viral 2016 trend. While many remembered the particular year with gratitude, Kangana described 2016 as a time when her life became a "living hell."

In her post, she recalled receiving a "controversial legal notice" from one of her colleagues that "shook and divided the industry into insiders and outsiders".

She refrained from naming anyone, yet her post subtly hinted at her much-publicised feud with Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan.

"Why is everyone missing 2016 suddenly? It was the inevitable ascend of my career trajectory, post back to back blockbusters like Queen and Tanu weds Manu returns I became the highest paid actress but then in the January of 2016 one of my colleagues sent me that controversial legal notice which shook and divided the industry in to insiders and outsiders," she wrote.

"Success became poisonous and life became a living hell. Sides were taken and many more legal battles followed. Ten years ago had I known in 2026 I will be eating carbs in all my meals, will be laughing a lot and none of the 2016 drama would mean anything to anyone few years down the line, honestly I would have not been so miserable back then. Thank God it's not 2016 and we are in 2026," Kangana added.

The controversy between Kangana and Hrithik surfaced in early 2016 after Ranaut reportedly publicly referred to him as an "ex" during media interviews. Hrithik, however, strongly denied the claims and subsequently issued a legal notice demanding a public apology. The two have worked together in Krrish 3. (ANI)
