After a video of actor Rakesh Bedi kissing Sara Arjun on her shoulder during the trailer launch of the film “Dhurandhar” quickly went viral on social media, the actor faced massive trolling. The actor has now clarified his position on the matter.
During the trailer launch, Rakesh Bedi warmly welcomed Sara Arjun on stage. He hugged her and lightly kissed her on the shoulder. This moment, captured on camera, quickly went viral on social media, sparking a flurry of comments. Many users accused the actor of misrepresenting this affectionate gesture.
Now, Rakesh Bedi has responded to the controversy, saying that people viewed the entire incident in a very wrong light. According to him, his relationship with Sara Arjun is like that of a father and daughter. He said, “These are absolutely stupid things. Sara is less than half my age, and she plays my daughter in the film.”
Rakesh further said that even during the shooting, Sara hugged him in the same way a daughter hugs her father. The actor said, “It was no different on the trailer launch day. Instead of seeing and understanding the affection, people are misinterpreting it. If someone’s thinking is flawed, what can I do about it?
The actor also clarified that Sara’s parents were present near the stage at the time. He questioned, “Why would I kiss a child with bad intentions on a public platform, especially in front of her parents? People make an issue out of it on social media for no reason.” I am not trying to explain myself; my work and my career are my identity.”
Rakesh Bedi says that such controversies are merely the result of misconceptions and hasty conclusions that have nothing to do with reality.
