Reet Padda has always been vocal about her political stance. Recently, she commented on a post, replying to another netizen who did not agree with her beliefs, particularly about films like Dhurandhar, The Kashmir Files and The Kerala Story. Calling them propagandist films, she said that films like these push a "government-friendly narrative."

She wrote, "Oh, look at me, actually responding to a comment on social media - shocking, I know. Normally, I don't bother, because clearly trying to change someone's mind here is like trying to teach cats to do calculus. But, since you've so generously invested your precious time reacting to every little thing I've reposted, I thought, why not? Let's go point by point, just so I can try to understand your apparently endless issues with my stance: First, the whole thing about calling films like Kashmir Files, Kerala Files, and Dhurandhar propaganda. For Dhurandhar, it literally serves as a government-friendly narrative, using political speeches to justify, say, the minor hiccup of demonetisation. Call it propaganda? Yep. Deny it? Not a chance. But maybe your definition of propaganda is… different, who knows."

Questioning the struggles of Kashmiri Pandits, she also said that she further said that would love to hear real life accounts from people who actually faced the genocide.

She further wrote, "Second, you seem to have a superior grasp of 'ground reality' because you're a Kashmiri Pandit. I never said the problems didn't exist, but these films clearly push a certain narrative and deviation is apparently optional. I'd love to hear about the 'real' ground reality from someone in the know… if only you weren't hiding behind a faceless, anonymous account. Makes me wonder: if you actually are a Kashmiri Pandit, why haven't you shared a single personal experience that actually matters? Curiosity, dear friend call it logical verification."

Blasting the right-wing government, she also said that they were responsible for the "2002 genocide against Muslims".

She further added, "Fourth, you seem to think I'm against some vague 'caste' but I think you mean 'religion' just realised I got involved in a tiff with someone who doesn't understand the difference. Let me clarify for anyone still following along: I do not discriminate against anyone, ever, because I'm human. I am fully unafraid to take a stand, even if everyone else is yelling 'no!' at me. What I do discriminate against are political figures who drag religion into politics especially when the same politicians orchestrated the 2002 genocide against Muslims. That is terrorism, that is a crime, and I will call it out. Would anyone let a film about that pass without scrutiny? Doubtful. So, yes, I don't discriminate against individuals. I do, however, discriminate against political dishonesty cloaked in religion. And yes, I'm unafraid to speak up, even if the majority doesn't like it."

Reet Padda also questioned Priyanka Chopra's silence on 'illegal wars' at Oscars 2026

Reet also brought up Priyanka Chopra's controversial moment at the Oscars 2026 when she stood silently beside Javier Bardem as he announced, "Free Palestine". Many criticised Chopra for maintaining an indifference demeanour on such a big platform, including Padda.

Reet wrote, 'Third, Priyanka Chopra and her international platform. She's got a chance to oppose an illegal war next to someone taking a stand, and… she can't even clap. If my sister gets that kind of opportunity, and Inshallah, sache patshah, jai shri ram, I pray she rises to the occasion and she chooses to stand there like a dodo bird, I will be the first one to call it out. I'd love to hear more about this 'aid' Priyanka has supposedly provided. Enlighten me, please."
