New Delhi: Actress Mrinal Thakur recently made headlines after an old clip by the actress, in which the actress went viral, in which she appeared to dig at Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu.
In the video, 19 -year -old Mrinal was seen calling Bipasha “manli with muscles” and claimed that she was much better than that.
Now, after mass backlash, Mrinal has apologized for his statement on “silly” comments.
He shared, “At the age of 19, I was told many silly things as a teenager. I did not always understand the weight of my voice or how many words, even in the gesture, had hurt. But it did it and I am deeply sorry for it.”
Hina Khan reacted to Mrinal Thakur’s apology
Hina Khan highlighted that when we are small, we all make mistakes.
“We all make mistakes, especially when we are small. I can be very well related to Mrinal, I have also made such foolish mistakes in the past. Some of us go through great risk without skills to handle it. But over time we develop, we become kind. We become kind to each other.
He said that both Mrinal and Bipasha Basu have made inspirational trips in Bollywood: “Like all of you, I too have seen both Bipasha and Mrinal’s inspirational journey in the industry.
She also urged everyone to “end this circus” and concluded the note saying, “I wanted to share my praise for both these unprecedented women who have changed the face of the Indian film industry. While we accept our differences.”
