Kangana-Ranaut’s-sister-RangoliKangana Ranaut received both praise and flak for baring her soul on her alleged relationships with Hrithik Roshan and Aditya Pancholi on a talk show.

One person who decided to give her a piece of mind was singer Sona Mohapatra. She addressed the actress in an open letter that read, “Dear Kangana, I have always cheered loudly, in private and in public for you. Long, long before you turned queen et all but your current run across the airwaves regurgitating personal details of your love life over and over again, washing dirty linen in public and more so as part of a professional PR campaign before your film release is in bad taste. No two ways about it. Also, it does a big dis-service to the cause of feminism and fair play. Wish you well and wish you would rise above this muck and make your point through actions and your work. Your success doesn’t need this tabloid trail.”

To this, Kangana’s sister and manager, Rangoli Chandel retaliated with a series of tweets claiming that the singer was trying to “milk publicity”. She said, “When some one bares her soul don’t call it a circus, you are a black spot on womanhood. #shameonyou @sonamohapatra. Humn journeys can’t b measurd in prerelease n post release paramtrs, ur empathy n wisdm is a slave to movie release calendar. People like you try and milk publicity from everything please take several seats, your two minutes of fame are up. @sonamohapatra”

Playback singer Sona Mohapatra, who rose to fame with the song ‘Ambarsariya’ is renowned for her outspoken nature on social media platforms for raising their opinion on the heated debates of Bollywood.

Recently, Kangana Ranaut appeared on the popular show ‘Aap Ki Adalat’ and without mincing any words, she, once again, spoke unabashedly about her alleged affair with Hrithik Roshan.

Post which, there were discussions happening on the social media about this stint of Kangana as a publicity stunt for her upcoming film ‘Simran,’ which is due to release. On the other hand there were people who sympathised with her and spoke harsh words against Hrithik Roshan, which was a never-ending debate.

Talking about which, Sona Mohapatra took the Facebook route to express her opinion and requested Kangana not to wash the dirty linen of her affair with Hrithik in public and make it a circus, rather let her deeds speak louder.

The singer wrote: “Dear Kangana, I have always cheered loudly, in private & in public for you. Long, long before you turned queen et all but your current run across the airwaves regurgitating personal details of your love life over & over again, washing dirty linen in public & more so as part of a professional PR campaign before your film release is in bad taste. No two ways about it. Also, it does a big dis-service to the cause of feminism & fair play. Wish you well & wish you would rise above this muck & make your point through actions & your work. Your success doesn’t need this tabloid trail. Your well thought out & superbly worded open letters of the past, fearless interviews addressing larger issues, taking a stand, taking legal recourse are welcome. The current ‘circus’, not.”

The post further read: This is just another opinion in the public domain from one working woman to another, from the heart & on an impulse. There is no PR machinery or team guiding me here. I do believe that there are plenty of feminists in the opposite gender. Men who cheer the cause of outspoken, feisty, fierce & hard working women like you & me. We don’t ‘need’ them as such but let’s not forget them & also the thousands of amazing women who fight the good fight on a daily basis with dignity.”

“Life might not have been easy but you are in a great place now. More so to influence positive change. That is worthy of a daily celebration. Also, today is Onam, a thanksgiving festival in the South. The mythology surrounding the festival is significant – it emphasizes the Hindu belief in the cyclical nature of events, that no individual, no ruler and nothing lasts forever, except the virtues and self-understanding that overcomes all sorrow. So, Happy Onam. Big love & healing to you. (P.S To the so called ‘journos’ hankering after this masala & asking those thaka hua questions. (sic),” concluded Sona.

However, this is not for the maiden time that Sona has been vocal about an issue.

Earlier, Sona had grabbed headlines for taking a jibe at Salman Khan and in the recent past, she put forward her disagreement on actors turning towards the mic.

Kangana Ranaut left everyone in utter shock and disbelief when she gave one hell of an interview last week, with Rajat Sharma, the host of India TV show’s ‘Aap Ki Adalat’. She was definitely in a tell-all mood as she didn’t shy away from any of the allegations or questions that were posed to her. However, what caught everybody’s attention were her candid answers concerning her ex-beau Hrithik Roshan.

Fans and the Bollywood fraternity went into frenzy as the actress revealed personal details about their relationship and didn’t mince her words, at all. Some appreciated her for having the guts to speak so openly on a public platform, whereas the interview didn’t go down well with others. One of them is Bollywood singer, Sona Mohapatra.

Sona, who is known for her bold and outspoken personality, took to her Facebook account to address Kangana’s latest interview. In an open letter to Kangana, she revealed what all she feels about her revelations.

She is of the opinion that the interview was a “part of a professional PR campaign” before Kangana’s next film, ‘Simran’ is released and says that the PR stunt was “in bad taste”.

She goes on to inculcate the issue of topic of feminism by saying that, “it does a big dis-service to the cause of feminism & fair play.” She even went ahead and called the entire situation as “circus” and ended the post on an unrelated note, by wishing the readers a “Happy Onam”.

The allegations made by Kangana in this interview also received a rather ‘subtle’ response from Hrithik’s ex-wife, Sussanne Khan. The ace interior designer came out in her ex-husband’s support and posted a selfie on her Twitter account. The caption read, “The is no allegation or sad plot that can have the weight to triumph over a good soul. #powerofthetruth #mafamilia #goodoverevil”

The whole Kangana-Hrithik feud came into the limelight last year, when Kangana received a legal notice from Hrithik asking for an apology for referring to him as her ‘silly ex’ in an interview. Kangana then began to share the details of an alleged affair with Hrithik, which was repeatedly denied by latter.

Although Hrithik has not responded to the interview yet, the open letter from Sona has definitely added fuel to the fire and we can only wonder what Kangana has to say on this.
