September 8, 2017 - 12:46 PM IST

The Hrithik Roshan-Kangana Ranaut feud has got reignited thanks to the shocking comments made by the actress on the popular TV show ‘Aap Ki Adalat’. The matter began somewhere in 2016 when Hrithik Roshan sent a legal notice to Kangana Ranaut for allegedly calling him ‘silly ex’ in an interview. The actress hit back with another legal notice and thus began an ugly war between the two. It was alleged that Kangana sent thousands of mails to Hrithik. Kangana Ranaut clarified on these allegations and she also hit back at her other detractors like Apurva Asrani, Ketan Mehta, Aditya Pancholi, Adhyayan Suman etc.

Kangana Ranaut’s sister Rangoli hits back at singer Sona Mohapatra for her open letter

Singer Sona Mohapatra, who has been vocal about a lot of issues on her social media profiles decided to speak up on this controversy. She however criticized Kangana Ranaut and claimed that she is creating a scene to promote her upcoming film Simran. She also claimed that she is doing a big disservice to feminism. All this was written in a long open letter posted by Sona Mohapatra. The open letter said, “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. 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)

Kangana Ranaut didn't respond to this letter but her sister Rangoli Chandel has reacted sharply. She posted three tweets in which she made her points clear. In the first tweet, she wrote, "When some one bares her soul don't call it circus, you are a black spot on womanhood. #shameonyou @sonamohapatra." The second tweet stated, "Humn journeys can't b measurd in prerelease n post release paramtrs, ur empathy n wisdm is a slave to movie release calendr @sonamohapatra." Her final tweet said, "people like you try and milk publicity from everything please take several seats, your two minutes of fame are up. @sonamohapatra."
