Sonu Sood Fires Back After Kangana Ranaut Slams His Ramayana Comparison With Food Spitting Incident
Sonu Sood faced major backlash on social media after comparing a food vendor spitting in roti dough to Lord Rama eating Shabari’s berries from the Ramayana.
Actress-MP Kangana Ranaut responded on X (formerly Twitter), remarking, 'Soon, Sonu ji might direct his own Ramayana based on his unique views on God and religion. Bollywood has another Ramayana to offer.' This controversy emerged after a viral video showed a man spitting on dough while making rotis for customers.
Next you know Sonu ji will direct his own Ramayana based on his own personal findings about God and religion. Wah kya baat hai Bollywood se ek aur Ramayana 👌 https://t.co/s1bWOer4Rp

Earlier, Sonu Sood addressed the video on X, stating in Hindi, 'If Shri Ram Ji ate Shabari's sour berries, why can’t I? Violence is overcome by non-violence; humanity must remain intact. Jai Shri Ram.'
हमारे श्री राम जी ने शबरी के झूठे बेर खाए थे तो मैं क्यों नहीं खा सकता
हिंसा को अहिंसा से पराजित किया जा सकता है मेरे भाई🤍
बस मानवता बरकरार रहनी चाहिए ।जय श्री राम🚩 https://t.co/uljActwMrR

He highlighted a story from the Ramayana where Shabari, a devoted follower of Rama, would leave her ashram daily with a walking stick to gather berries for the Lord. She would taste each berry and, if it was sweet, add it to her basket, discarding the bitter ones. She aimed to offer only the best berries to Rama, unaware that offerings should not be tasted.
Responding to Kangana’s comments, Sonu wrote in Hindi, 'I have never justified those who spit in food. Their behavior is unchangeable, and they deserve severe punishment. However, let humanity remain humanity, my friend. Instead of arguing, let's spend that time helping the needy! By the way, I am a huge fan of the UP government's work. Every house in UP, Bihar is my family. No matter what state, city, or religion, if you need anything, let me know. The number is the same.'
मैंने खाने में थूकने वालों को कभी सही नहीं बताया। वो उनका चरित्र है जो कभी नहीं बदलेगा। इसके लिए उन्हें कढ़ीं सज़ा भी दें।
लेकिन इंसानियत को इंसानियत ही रहने दें दोस्त। जितना समय हम एक दूसरे को समझाने में लगे हैं उतना समय ज़रूरतमंद लोगों पे लगा दें ! वैसे आप सब के लिए बता दूँ ,,…— sonu sood (@SonuSood) July 20, 2024
