Some people have been enjoying their lockdown by enjoying reruns of Ramayan and Mahabharat on television and Mukesh Khanna who is popularly known as Shaktimaan and his iconic role of Bhisma Pitamah in BR Chopra’s 90s serial Mahabharat, taking a dig at Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha said that the rerun would be helpful for her.

He said, "I think the reruns will be useful to many who haven’t watched the show earlier. It will also help people like Sonakshi Sinha who do not know our mythological sagas. People like her don’t know who did lord Hanuman gets Sanjivani for. There is a video doing the rounds where few boys are asked whose Mama (uncle) was Kans and they got scared to answer. Some said Duryodhan, others said something else, so they are not aware of the mythology."

For the uninformed, Mukesh was raking up a controversy of the time when Sonakshi failed to name the person for whom Lord Hanuman had brought “sanjeevani” in the Ramayana epic when she appeared in popular show Kaun Banega Crorepati.

Host Amitabh Bachchan had also schooled her at the time and said, "Aapke pitaji ka naam hai Shatrughan, aap jis ghar me rehti hain, uska naam hai Ramayana.Aapke jitne chacha hain, wo sab Ramayan se sambandhit hain, Aapko ye nahi pata ki Lakshman ke liye laaye they jadibooti? (Your father and uncles names are derived from Ramayan, you live in a house called Ramayana. How do you not know for whom did Hanuman bring Jadibooti?)"

To which Sonakshi then replied, “Mujhe laga tha, lekin mai inke liye bahut nervous thi to chance nahi lena chahti thi (I thought it should be Lakshman but did not want to take any chance)."
