Manikarnika Controversy: Sonu Sood clarifies about the whole incident with Kangana Ranaut

In a response to the actress' statement, Sonu has clarified that he decided to leave the project because of scheduling conflicts and not due to the "gender of the director".

Kangana Ranaut’s controversy around Manikarnika is not dying soon as now Sonu Sood has hit back at the actress for accusing him of male chauvinism.

Yes, after Sonu quit the film, Kangana said, "He vehemently denied to work under a woman director, which is kind of amusing because Sonu is a dear friend..."

Now, in a response to the actress' statement, Sonu has clarified that he decided to leave the project because of scheduling conflicts and not due to the "gender of the director".

In a statement the actor said, "The gender of the director is not the issue, competence is. Let's not confuse the two. I've worked with Farah Khan who's a competent woman director and Farah and I had a great professional equation and we are still best of friends. That's all I would like to say,"

Spokesperson of the Sonu had earlier said that the actor, who is filming Rohit Shetty's Simmba right now, was recently asked to reshoot portions for Manikarnika by Kangana. Sonu is sporting a beard for the Ranveer Singh-starrer, but for Manikarnika, he was supposed to be clean shaven. The actor had asked the makers of the biopic to finish the reshoots after he completes his schedule for Simmba but things did not work out and he decided to quit the project.

Never miss a chance to be amazed by the glitz and the glamour of the Entertainment industry.
