Sonakshi Sinha slams Mukesh Khanna for blaming her father over Ramayana blunder
Sonakshi Sinha responds to Mukesh Khanna's criticism over her Ramayana question on KBC, defending her upbringing and urging him to move on from the incident.
It so happened that while asking a question, host Amitabh Bachchan addressed Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj as ‘Shivaji’.
Kaun Banega Crorepati was in the news recently over the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj controversy. It so happened that while asking a question on the show, host Amitabh Bachchan addressed Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj as ‘Shivaji’ and the option on the computer screens also read ‘Shivaji’.
Soon after, a certain section of Kaun Banega Crorepati viewers along with BJP leader Nitesh Rane and Shri Rajput Karni Sena, addressed the issue and raised protests over the question wherein the Maratha warrior ruler was referred to as Shivaji. Not just this, #Boycott_KBC_SonyTv started trending on social media.
