Kriti Sanon takes a sharp dig with Raksha Bandhan post: ‘With Rakhi fashion committee still in session…’

Kriti Sanon shared a post on Instagram that poked fun at the ongoing debate surrounding her Raksha Bandhan outfit. The post highlighted the ongoing controversy about her outfit in a Giva Rakshabandhan ad, which showed her tying a Rakhi to her pet while wearing a bralette and a skirt. The outfit drew criticism from some social media users, who claimed that it was disrespectful towards religious sentiments.

The ad was subsequently pulled. Kriti responded to the backlash on Instagram, stating that the essence of festivals is not in the clothes one wears, but in the emotions and meaning one attaches to the traditions. She emphasized that Raksha Bandhan is a bond of protection and that her sister and she tie Rakhi to each other, and they also pray for each other's health, happiness, and long life.

Kriti also mentioned that their dogs are also considered part of their family, as they are included in their prayers and promises.
