Shatrughan Sinha Comes To Daughter Sonakshi Sinha's Rescue As Shaktiman Mukesh Khanna Takes A Dig At Her
After being criticised, Sonakshi Sinha’s father Shatrughan Sinha comes out in defence of his daughter and mentioned that not knowing answers to questions related to Ramayan doesn’t disqualify Sonakshi from being a good Hindu neither she needs approval from anyone
More than people talking about the rerun of Ramayan on Doordarshan amidst the Coronavirus lockdown, Sonakshi Sinha was apparently the hot topic. This all started when Shaktimaan and Pitamah Bhishma Mukesh Khanna took a jibe at the Dabangg 3 actress, referring to the Kaun Banega Crorepati episode. He bluntly told that people like Sonakshi Sinha will be benefited with the rerun of Ramayan. Though Sonakshi has kept mum, it is her father Shatrughan Sinha who has taken a stand for his daughter and defended her.
A Bollywood Hungama report quoted Shatrughan defending his daughter but not taking anyone’s name. He simply said, “I believe someone has problem with Sonakshi not answering a question on the Ramayan. Firstly what qualifies this person to be an expert on all things to do with the Ramayan? And who has appointed him the guardian of the Hindu religion?”
He also added that he is a proud father and mentioned that Ramayan doesn’t disqualify Sonakshi from being a good Hindu neither she needs approval from anyone. “I am very proud of all my three children. Sonakshi became a star on her own. I never had to launch her career. She is a daughter any father would be proud to have. Not answering a question on the Ramayan doesn’t disqualify Sonakshi from being a good Hindu. She doesn’t need a certificate of approval from anyone,” he told the entertainment website.
In a new interview with Times Of India, Mukesh discussed the return of Ramayan and Mahabharat while also calling out Sonakshi as she couldn't answer a question related to mythology in Kaun Banega Crorepati. He was quoted saying, “I think the reruns will be useful to many who haven’t watched the show earlier. It will also help people like Sonakshi Sinha who have no knowledge about our mythological sagas. People like her don’t know who did lord Hanuman get Sanjivani for.” ALSO READ: 'Lord Krishna' Nitish Bhardwaj Lashes Out At 'Bhishma' Mukesh Khanna For Taking A Jibe At Sonakshi Sinha
