Mumbai, August 2: A series of social media posts has sparked renewed public interest in the relationship between actors Kangana Ranaut and Hrithik Roshan, following commentary on a viral online trend. Addressing Hrithik directly online, Kangana asserted that he should refrain from making unnecessary public comments and instead take a stand against users harassing her in his name.
The latest exchange developed after Hrithik responded to online commentary surrounding the “We Need to Apologise to Hrithik” topic. Hrithik declared that he preferred to wait for factual context before taking a stance, advising the public against being influenced by shifting online narratives. He further observed that choosing sides based on dislike for another party reflected a wider societal issue.
In a direct response shared on Instagram Stories, Kangana expressed that while she was pleased he had found happiness with partner Saba Azad, his remarks were only aggravating the situation. She affirmed that he should avoid subtle commentary that impacts his personal life, urging him to directly address those using his name for online friction.
The sudden rise in online attention followed unrelated comments by Kangana regarding student protests, which prompted a back-and-forth with political spokesperson Saurav Das. The interaction included light-hearted references connecting the topic to past public discussions involving Hrithik.
The long-standing conflict between the two personalities traces back to 2016, when formal legal notices and public statements were issued following differing accounts of their personal history. The dispute has periodically resurfaced in public discourse over subsequent years.
