Harshvardhan Rane-Mavra’s war with ‘Sanam Teri Kasam 2’ Before this incident, there has been a sharp debate on social media between Sanam Teri Kasam’s lead actors Harshvardhan Rane and Mavra Hocken. Actually, Operation Sindoor was called cowardly by Mavra Hocken, who made her Bollywood debut with Sanam Teri Kasam. The actress, who has worked in India, was enraged by her co-star Harshvardhan after hearing such words for India. He announced that if Sanam Teri Kasam 2 became with Mavra, he would not be a part of it. On this, Mavra had said that Harshvardhan is trying to come to the headline by taking his name. After which Harshvardhan gave him a befitting reply.
After Mavra’s PR strategy comment came out, the actor wrote, it looks like a personal attack. Fortunately I have tolerance to ignore such efforts, but I have zero tolerance for any attack on the dignity of my country.
Further, Harshvardhan wrote, a farmer extracts a furious distance from his crop, for this the farmer does not need any PR team. This is called General Knowledge. I just asked to withdraw from Part 2 (Sanam Teri Kasam). I have every right not to work with people who call the actions of my country cowardly. His speech has a lot of hatred and personal comments. I never took his name or did not resort to call him by name. She did not attack her dignity as a woman. I maintain that standard.
Know how the dispute started?
Pakistani actress Mavra Hocken called India’s Operation Sindoor a cowardly and embarrassing. In response, Harshvardhan wrote in his post without writing the name of Mavra, ‘I respect all the artists and humans. Whether they are of this country, Kenya and even Mars. But this kind of derogatory word about my country is not worthy of forgiveness. I will not allow anyone to crush my pride and upbringing. It is a good thing for your country to stand up, but it is not right for another country to make hate, derogatory comments. ‘
In the second post, he wrote, ‘As is the situation and my country has got to read comments, after that I have decided that if I have to work again with the previous cast, I will not be a part of Sanam Teri Kasam-2. I will deny great respect. ‘
Mavra wrote in response to this post of Harshvardhan, ‘I do not understand whether to call it unfortunate, sad or funny … which I hoped that she would understand a little, she would get up from deep sleep and that too with a prison. Look around you, what’s happening! We have all heard the sounds of the blasts, innocent children in my country were killed in a cowardly and illegitimate attack, innocent went away. We tried to maintain peace again and again, but even after that when our army replied, there was chaos towards you. When our country is in a state of war, then you have just a prison to say, just to draw attention? What a shame’
Mavra further wrote, I have always respected, love and thank whom I have always worked with and will continue to do it. I had a project offer and I said yes. I will never spread hatred, as if you have just done it. Making such announcements in such a delicate time, it is not only shameful but also strange, your hunger and disinterest are clearly visible. Our countries are in a state of war, 2 nuclear forces are face to face. This is not the time to discuss films, not to tighten each other, or not to let anyone down. It only shows your insensitivity and ignorance. It seems that not only the media here, you are also losing your senses.
Mavra had said, ‘If you are getting headlines by using my name, using my name, then you may be surrounded by wrong people. It is absolutely wrong to use a serious situation like war for your personal benefit. Knowing so much, this time is very fragile. You lost your dignity like this. I am praying for the soldiers of my country and citizens on both sides, not thinking what my next film should be. May God understand everyone, for me my country is at the top, Pakistan is alive. ‘
Let us tell you that Pakistani actress Mavra Hocken made her Bollywood debut with the 2016 film Sanam Teri Kasam. Harshvardhan Rane was in the lead role in the film. The film was a tremendous hit. Recently, the makers have announced its sequel.
