Posting the quote on her Instagram stories, Sonam conveyed, “Here’s something I’d like certain individuals to consider, especially when discussing fabricated matters about people.”The quote itself reads: “Small minds discuss people; average minds discuss events, great minds discuss ideas.” These words by Eleanor Roosevelt hold great significance in the context of the controversy that has been swirling around in the media.

It is worth noting that Dulquer Salmaan and Sonam Kapoor had previously worked together in the film The Zoya Factor, which unfortunately didn’t fare well at the box office.

This connection between them further fueled the speculations and intensified the controversy. However, Rana apologized to Sonam and Dulquer through his social media account after a video of the occurrence went Viral on social media, Rana issued an apology to Sonam and Dulquer through his social media handle stating, ‘I am genuinely troubled by the negativity that has been aimed at Sonam due to my comments, that is totally untrue and were meant entirely in a light-hearted manner. As friends, we often exchange playful banter, and I deeply regret that my words have been misinterpreted. I take this opportunity to express my heartfelt apologies to Sonam and Dulquer, both of whom I hold in great esteem. I hope this clarification puts an end to any speculation and misunderstanding. Thank you for your understanding.’
