Indian actor Mukesh Khanna has responded to the criticism he faced from Sonakshi Sinha regarding his comments on the Ramayana. In a recent interview, Mukesh made it clear that his statements were not aimed at disrespecting Sonakshi’s background or her beliefs. His controversial remark was focused on his opinions about how characters in Indian epics and mythological figures are portrayed.
Known for his memorable role as Bhishma in the television series “Mahabharat”, Mukesh expressed that he has always respected Hindu culture and traditions deeply. He pointed out that any offense taken was not his intention and offered an apology if his words were misinterpreted.
The actor elaborated that he was merely sharing his views on the significance of cultural representation, emphasizing that his comments were not directed personally. Mukesh encouraged both fans and critics to consider his remarks within the context of a larger discussion about media representations of Indian epics.
Sonakshi Sinha, who previously voiced her concerns on social media, has not yet responded to Mukesh’s explanation. This incident has ignited a broader conversation about freedom of expression and the sensitivity of cultural issues in Indian media.
