Mukesh Khanna reacts to Sonakshi Sinha slamming him for raising questions about Shatrughan Sinha’s upbringing
Talking to News9, Mukesh Khanna shared that he always knew that he was antagonising Sonakshi Sinha by taking her name for not being able to answer a question related to Ramayana in 2019. He also added that he had no malicious intention to malign Sonakshi or Shatrughan, while the latter is his senior, and they share a very good bond. In Mukesh’s words:
“I knew I was antagonising her by taking her name from that incident in the famous Kaun Banega Crorepati show. But I had no malicious intention to malign her or her father, who is my senior, and I have a very cordial relationship with him.”
He further clarified that he used Sonakshi Sinha’s reference to teach the younger generation who rely on Google and YouTube to learn about stuff. Mukesh added that they all have vast knowledge, which is preserved in culture, Sanskriti, and history, and should be known by everyone, even the younger generation. Adding that the younger generation should feel proud about all these, Mukesh mentioned:
“Here I had a Hi-Fi case in front of me of her which I could use to teach others. Fathers, sons, daughters. We have a huge and vast knowledge preserved in our culture, Sanskriti and history which every youth of today should know. And not only know but also feel proud about it. That’s all.”
Sonakshi Sinha hit back at Mukesh Khanna as she questioned about Shatrughan Sinha’s upbringing
It was on December 16, 2024, when Sonakshi Sinha took to her IG handle and penned a long note, wherein she slammed Mukesh Khanna for his remarks about her father, Shatrughan Sinha’s upbringing. For the unversed, Mukesh took the dig as long ago, Sonakshi was not able to answer. Sonakshi, in her note, added how her father, Shatrughan was being held as a reason that she couldn’t answer to a question long back on a show. She further mentioned that there were two other women there that night, who, too, couldn’t remember the same question, but Mukesh Khanna only took her name.
She further shared that she wished that the Shaktiman actor could forget and stop bringing up the same topic again and again. She also added that when Ram in Ramayana could forgive even Ravana, then Mukesh Khanna, too, should let go of this small thing that she had blanked out that day and couldn’t answer a question related to Ramayana. She further confronted him for the way he made comments on Shatrughan Sinha’s upbringing and mentioned that it’s her father who instilled values in her, and thus she replied to his very distasteful comment in a respectful way.
