Kangana Ranaut calls out Sonu Sood for comparing food vendor spitting in customer’s food to Shabri episode in Ramayana |

Sonu Sood has faced backlash on social media for defending a food vendor who spat on a customer’s food. Actor-politician Kangana Ranaut has also criticized him, condemning his stance on the issue.
The actor-turned-MP took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to slam Sonu, who is known for his humanitarian work. “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,” she posted.

Kangana shared her views while reposting another post, which read, “SHOCKING NEWS… Bollywood actor Sonu Sood justifies sp*itting in people’s food. He equates sp*itting on food by a miscreant with Lord Ram eating Shabri’s berries. He said ‘if Lord Ram could eat Shabri’s berries, why can’t he eat rotis that have been spat upon?’ He defended the act of spitting by describing it as an act of ‘Humanity’. He said ‘Humanity must remain intact.’”

The controversy started when a user on X posted a video showing a boy spitting on dough while making rotis. This footage was shared in response to Sonu Sood’s reaction to a mandate requiring eateries along the Kanwar Yatra route to display their owners’ names.
Reacting to Sonu’s tweet, the user wrote, “The roti smeared with spit should be parcelled to Sonu Sood, so that brotherhood remains intact!”

Responding to the same, Sonu shared, “Our Shri Ram Ji ate the sour berries of Shabri, so why can’t I eat them? Violence can be defeated by non-violence my brother. Humanity must just remain intact. Jai Shri Ram”.
On the work front, Sonu will next be seen in the cyber crime thriller ‘Fateh’, starring alongside Jacqueline Fernandez and Naseeruddin Shah. Directed by Abhinandan Gupta and produced by Zee Studios and Shakti Sagar Productions, the film is set for release later this year.
