Sonakshi Sinha was among the first Bollywood celebrities to show support for the CJP-led student protest organised in Delhi. The actor faced heavy trolling after she openly backed the movement. Now, her father, veteran actor and member of the All India Trinamool Congress (TMC), Shatrughan Sinha , has spoken about the trolling directed at Sonakshi and also addressed speculation about her plans to join politics.
During an interaction with ABP News, Shatrughan was asked about questions being raised over Sonakshi’s vocal support for the Delhi protest, while some questioned why she had not shown the same initiative when it came to student protests in Jharkhand. Shatrughan rejected the notion and pointed out that his daughter had strongly supported the students of Jharkhand a few days ago as well. Given Sonakshi’s strong political opinions, which her father suggested can sometimes be even stronger and more assertive than his own, Shatrughan was asked whether his daughter plans to join politics at any point in the future. I can only say she is the most worthy daughter of a worthy father. The IT cell that our friends have, the BJP, they are doing it and also those who follow their policies. This trolling is manufactured, they are paid trolls, they don’t even know what to say…it is written and given to them. But Sonakshi has done the right thing by saying that she doesn’t even look at trolls. Bahut jaan hai usmein (She is very strong). I am glad that he’s okay and that his wife is with him. He’s strong, he’s alert. In the last few days, I have been seeing him and the thousands standing with him.”
Speaking about the possibility, he said, “I can’t say. He said in Hindi, “Many people who troll her and try to create ruckus around her, they are paid trolls.
Earlier, I used to ask. She said, “The thing that happened with Sonam sir today…it wasn’t right.
