Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has backed actor Kriti Sanon amid a row over her Raksha Bandhan advertisement, saying it was “her choice” what she wore. His remarks came a day after actor and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut criticised Sanon’s outfit in the advertisement. The campaign sparked debate online, with some users questioning Sanon’s clothing and a scene involving a rakhi. Sanon later responded to the criticism, defending her right to choose her outfit. Gandhi’s intervention added a political dimension to the controversy, as reactions continued to pour in over the advertisement and the wider debate around personal choice. (PC: India Today)
