After BB13, Shehnaaz Gill received a lot of love from the audience. She now has several fan clubs praising her every move. But it looks like singer and activist, Sona Mohapatra, is tired of people not holding Shehnaaz accountable for her actions.
In her recent tweet, Sona reminded everyone that the Punjabi actress had supported the #MeToo accused, Sajid Khan.
Scroll down for all the deets:
Here’s What Happened:
At an award function, Shehnaaz was called on stage and the host requested her to sing a few lines. She stopped singing in the middle when she heard the azaan call in the background. Fans appreciated Shehnaaz for being respectful to the prayer call.
Shehnaaz Gill waited before performing inspite of being insisted at the Lokmat Digital Creator Awards 2023 when she heard the sound of #Azaan.

As the love started to pour in on social media, Sona reminded fans about Shehnaaz’s past actions. Here’s what she wrote on Twitter:
all the twitter adulation for #ShehnaazGiII’s act of ‘respect’ today reminded me of her ‘support’, ‘reverence’ & ‘glorification’ of a multiple accused sex offender & pervert #SajjidKhan when he was platformed on National TV.Wished she had some respect for her sisterhood. #MeToo

Soon after this tweet was posted, Sona received tremendous backlash. The singer was trolled by Shehnaaz’s fans as they termed her “jealous.” They also asked her to call out other celebs who supported Sajid. Some even said that Sona was being a hypocrite because her tweet was also bringing down a woman in the name of sisterhood. Here, take a look at some of the reactions:
Sona didn’t take it lying down and retaliated with another tweet about Jacqueline Fernandez, who dated Sajid despite sexual harassment allegations.
Dear trolls trying to stand up for yet another starlet like Jacqueline, I don’t know what Shehnaz’s particular talent is as of now, apart from low-brow reality tv fame.But I do know the modus operandi of women of convenience,shortcuts who bust the good fight for a role/money.🧚🏿♀️🔴 https://t.co/tN2H6qvWLz
