Mukesh Khanna takes a not-so-subtle dig at Sonakshi Sinha; says, “Reruns of ‘Ramayan’ will help people like her”

Veteran actor Mukesh Khanna is more than happy to bring back his all-time hit show ‘Shaktimaan’ back on the small screens. And he has even confirmed that the show’s sequel is on the anvil. Khanna recently took a dig at Sonakshi Sinha saying that the reruns of classic shows like ‘Ramayan’ and ‘Mahabharat’ will help people like her who have no knowledge about Indian mythology.

Amidst the nationwide lockdown caused due to Coronavirus outbreak, popular and classic shows like ‘Mahabharat’ and ‘Ramayan’ are being rerun on Doordarshan on popular demand.

In September last year, Sonakshi Sinha had appeared on ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’. In the game show, she was asked, “According to Ramayana, Hanuman fetched the Sanjeevani booti (herb) for whom?” She got confused between four options – Sugriva, Lakshmana, Sita and Rama. The actress ultimately took a lifeline to answer the question. Later she was mercilessly trolled and schooled by the netizens.

Now taking a dig at Sonakshi’s lack of knowledge on the subject, Mukesh told Times of India, “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. There is a video doing the rounds where few boys are asked whose Mama (uncle) was Kans and they got scared to answer. Some said Duryodhan, others said something else, so they are not aware of the mythology.” 

Well, we wonder what Sonakshi has to say about Khanna’s comment now.

Until then you guys stay tuned to this space for more such interesting updates.
