Cultural Clash: Mukesh Khanna vs. Sonakshi Sinha's Knowledge Gap

Actor Mukesh Khanna ignited controversy by criticizing Sonakshi Sinha's lack of knowledge about the Ramayana, intended as a cultural lesson. Sonakshi responded with an open letter, urging him to cease using her as a target. Khanna apologizes, promising no recurrence.

Mukesh Khanna, a veteran actor renowned for his roles in 'Shaktimaan' and 'Mahabharat', has sparked a debate by criticizing Sonakshi Sinha's knowledge of the Ramayana, which he intended as a lesson for the younger generation about cultural awareness.

Sonakshi, widely recognized as the daughter of veteran actor and TMC MP Shatrughan Sinha, responded sharply, criticizing Khanna in an open letter for making 'distasteful statements' about her upbringing.

Khanna has since expressed regret over his remarks, clarifying that there was no malicious intent involved and has assured that he will not repeat the incident in future discussions.
