'Bollywood se ek aur Ramayana': Kangana Ranaut slams Sonu Sood for comparing vendor spitting on food with Ramayan's Shabari
New Delhi: Actor Sonu Sood has been drawing ire from social media after he defended a food vendor's actions of spitting on his customer's food. Now, actor-politician Kangana Ranaut has also called him out, slamming him for his views.
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.’"
Earlier this week, controversy erupted when a user on X shared a video of a boy preparing rotis for customers, which included footage of him spitting on the dough.
The video was posted in reaction to Sonu’s response to a directive from authorities in Uttar Pradesh and Haridwar, which required 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.”

It did not go well with the social media users. One user wrote, “Itna bhi defend maat karo, galat ko bhi sahi proof karne mein lage ho. (Don’t stoop down to defend something that you start sounding wrong.)"
A comment read, "Sonu, nonsense is at its place and truth is at its place, the one who makes this roti is neither Mother Shabari nor are you Ram? Mother Shabari is the symbol of love, this person is spitting in hatred."
Another comment read, "Mother Shabari was a devotee of Lord Rama and she had not made the berries impure out of malice. She was simply giving them to Lord Rama after tasting them to know whether they were sweet or not in her innocence. The person shown in the video neither loves his customers nor is he spitting on the roti to taste it to check if it is cooked properly or not. The reason behind his action is hatred towards other religions. And you are comparing the act of such a person with that of mother Shabari? You are a very foolish person."
