Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut, a BJP member and parliamentarian, has clarified her objections to Kriti Sanon's Raksha Bandhan advertisement for jewellery brand GIVA. Initially, Kangana criticized the actress's attire, but now she argues that the issue was not merely about the clothing but the portrayal of the festival. The advertisement was withdrawn by GIVA after facing backlash.
In an interview, Kangana explained that she objected to the bralette's appearance, stating, "Kya kuch bhi pehnne se rok raha hai?" Kangana further questioned Rahul Gandhi's support for Kriti by asking, "Kyun hisse mein rajneeti nahi hai?" She emphasized that a woman can wear whatever she wishes on Raksha Bandhan, asserting that "Raksha Bandhan is a religious expression of a civilization."
Kangana also criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, implying he has a mindset against Sanatan Dharm. She further made comparisons between young girls wearing burqas and questioned Rahul's views on women and clothing. Kangana's comments were her personal political views and were not presented as facts.
