Kangana Ranaut responds to Hrithik Roshan over the viral “We Need to Apologise to Hrithik” trend, urging him to stop encouraging online bullying and respect his relationship with Saba Azad. The social media exchange revives memories of their long-running public feud.
Actress Kangana Ranaut has once again found herself at the center of a social media storm after responding to actor Hrithik Roshan’s remarks regarding the viral “We Need to Apologise to Hrithik” trend. The latest online exchange has reignited discussions surrounding the actors’ long-standing public feud, which first made headlines nearly a decade ago.
The controversy began after Kangana faced widespread criticism on social media over her recent comments about Gen Z. As criticism mounted online, a trend titled “We Need to Apologise to Hrithik” gained momentum, with many users revisiting the infamous legal and public dispute between the two actors that dominated headlines in 2016.
Reacting to Hrithik Roshan’s recent comment on social media, Kangana posted a strongly worded message, asking the actor to refrain from encouraging online harassment directed at her. She also referenced Hrithik’s relationship with actress Saba Azad, stating that it was inappropriate for him to engage in remarks that could further escalate the controversy.
In her social media statement, Kangana wrote that she was happy Hrithik had found happiness with Saba Azad and that the couple looked great together. However, she added that someone in a committed relationship should not be teasing another woman publicly. Instead, she urged Hrithik to condemn those allegedly using his name to bully and harass her online.
Kangana further appealed to the actor to “stop adding fuel to the fire” and avoid making comments that could intensify the already heated online debate. She expressed hope that “better sense prevails” and that unnecessary public remarks would come to an end.
The latest exchange followed Hrithik Roshan’s response to a post by writer and social media personality Freddy Birdy. In his comment, Hrithik emphasized the importance of understanding context before taking sides in any controversy. He remarked that supporting one individual simply because another person is unpopular reflects a broader societal issue, adding that he would rather wait until discussions are driven by verified facts.
The controversy also drew attention after content creator Saurav Das joked that Kangana appeared to be targeting him because some of his friends believed he resembled a younger Hrithik Roshan. His remarks quickly spread across social media, adding fuel to the ongoing online discussions and contributing to the viral hashtag.
As the debate intensified, many social media users revisited the highly publicized dispute between Kangana Ranaut and Hrithik Roshan, which involved legal notices, public statements, and allegations that dominated entertainment headlines in 2016. The renewed attention has once again sparked divided opinions among fans, with some supporting Kangana’s latest response while others defended Hrithik’s call for fairness and factual discussions.
