Sonam Kapoor slams Mohan Bhagwat over divorce comment: Regressive foolish statements

New Delhi: Bollywood actor Sonam Kapoor Ahuja slammed RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat in a tweet over his statement on divorce, calling it a “regressive, foolish statement.”

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat addressing the RSS workers said – the cases of divorce are found more in “educated and affluent” families nowadays as education and affluence also brings arrogance, which results in families falling apart. He also said that there is no alternative to the Hindu society in India.

Bhagwat’s comments enraged Sonam as she lashed out at the RSS chief in her tweet and also shared a news clipping of his remarks. “Which sane man speaks like this? Regressive foolish statements,” she said in her post.

Commenting further on family life, the RSS Cheif had said, “There is no society without a household, and women, who comprise half of the society, should become more enlightened. But if we do not care about our society, then neither we will survive, nor our family.”

He added that “India has no option other than a Hindu society and Hindu society has no option but to behave like a family,”

Sonam was last seen in Bollywood film The Zoya Factor in 2019, where she was the lead in the film along with Dulquer Salmaan. The same year saw the release of the film Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga.
