Actress Akansha Ranjan Kapoor was recently seen casting her vote for the 2024 United States elections, causing netizens to speculate about her citizenship. The ‘Monica, O My Darling’ star, who is also known to be superstar Alia Bhatt’s bestie, took to Instagram to reveal that she had cast her vote in the US Presidential Election, also hinting at her preferred candidate.
In a video shared on her Instagram Stories, Akansha proudly displayed her "I Voted" sticker and included a gif featuring Kamala Harris, suggesting she supports the Democratic Vice President.
