Kriti Sanon Responds to Kangana Ranaut Over Rakhi Traditions
Kriti Sanon shared a message on social media after a disagreement involving Kangana Ranaut.
The discussion was about Raksha Bandhan and what women wear.
Kriti said festivals are about feelings and traditions, not just clothes.
She explained that she and her sister tie rakhi to each other.
They believe sisters can protect each other too.
She also said they include their dogs in their prayers because the dogs are family.
Kriti asked people to stop judging women based on their clothing.
She said respect for culture comes from a person’s feelings, not from the shape of their clothes.
Kriti Sanon responded to Kangana Ranaut on social media in a dispute described as a Rakhi row.
Sanon said festivals are defined by emotions and the meaning people attach to traditions, rather than clothing.
She said she and her sister tie rakhi to each other and believe they can protect each other as well as a brother could.
