‘Forgive and Forget’: Sonakshi Sinha Calls Out Mukesh Khanna Over Remarks on Her Father Shatrughan Sinha, Reminds ‘Shaktimaan’ Star of Lord Ram’s Teachings

Sonakshi Sinha has spoken out against Shaktimaan star Mukesh Khanna’s recent comments about her inability to answer a question related to the Ramayana on Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) in 2019. The actress took to her Instagram Stories, addressing Mukesh’s criticism, and firmly called out his attempt to blame her father, Shatrughan Sinha, for her lack of knowledge about it. She reminded the veteran actor the teachings of Lord Ram, ‘Forgive and Forget’, as he took a dig at her father in a recent interview. In the episode of KBC 11, Sonakshi was asked about whom Hanuman brought the Sanjeevani booti for in the Ramayana. She couldn’t recall the correct answer at the time, which led to a moment of embarrassment. However, in a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Mukesh referenced the incident again, claiming it was Shatrughan’s fault for not teaching Sonakshi about the Ramayana. Mukesh criticised Sonakshi’s upbringing, implying that her father had failed to instill these values in her. Sonakshi Sinha Calls Her Ramayan Goof-Up on Kaun Banega Crorepati an 'Honest Mistake', Says 'It’s Disheartening That People Still Troll Me'.

Sonakshi Sinha has responded to Mukesh Khanna’s statements, saying, “Stop bringing up the same incident time and again to be back in the news at the expense of me and my family.” She pointed out that there were two women on the KBC hot seat that day who didn’t know the answer, yet only her name was repeatedly brought up. The actress noted that while she may have blanked out, forgetting a simple detail, Mukesh’s persistence in bringing up the incident was unnecessary. Sonakshi then reminded Khanna of the teachings of Lord Ram, particularly the lessons of “forgive and forget.”

She wrote, “Yes i may have blanked out that day, a human tendency, and forgotten who the sanjeevani booti was brought for, but clearly you have also forgotten some of the lessons of forgive and forget taught by lord Ram himself... if lord Ram can forgive Manthara, if he can forgive Kaikeyi... if he can even forgive Ravan after the great battle was done, surely you can let go of this extremely small thing in comparison... not that i need your forgiveness. But yes, i definitely need you to forget and stop bringing up the same incident time and again to be back in the news at the expense of me and my family.” Sonakshi Sinha Funny Memes Take Over the Internet After She Fails to Answer a Simple Question on Ramayana in KBC 11.
