“As Padmavati becomes a burning controversy, people are asking why the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, most versatile Aamir Khan and most popular Shah Rukh Khan have no comments. And how come our I&B Minister or our most popular Honourable PM (according to Pew – American think tank Pew poll) are maintaining stoic silence. High time! (Sic),” Sinha tweeted yesterday. He defended his decision behind staying silent until now, stating that he “should” express his opinion only after Bhansali speaks.

“I speak only when I am spoken to, and I will speak keeping in mind the interests of the filmmaker as well as the sensitivity, valour, loyalty of the great Rajputs (sic).”

Asked if she takes her family opinion before signing any film, Sonakshi said: “I consult my whole family before signing a film because they have been in the industry for long, so it’s the logical thing to do.”

“My mum sometimes sits with me also for the narration, my dad (Shatrughan Sinha) is not always there so I give him a gist of the narration. Till now, my brothers (Luv and Kush) have not criticised me and are very proud,” said the 25-year-old.
