Kangana Ranaut tells Hrithik Roshan to “stop adding fuel to the fire” as trend grows
The ‘Sorry Hrithik’ trend continued to dominate social media over the weekend as users revisited the long‑running Hrithik Roshan–Kangana Ranaut dispute in the wake of Ranaut’s latest controversy involving student protesters. The hashtag surged after CJP researcher Saurav Das mentioned that his friends joked he resembled a young Hrithik Roshan while questioning why Ranaut was targeting him, prompting users to revive the pair’s 2016 legal battle and declare that “the internet owes Hrithik an apology”.
The backlash against Ranaut began after she referred to Gen Z protesters as “Generation Gutter”, sparking widespread criticism and a fresh round of memes, commentary and archival clips. As the debate intensified, users drew parallels to her past feud with Roshan, fuelling hashtags such as ‘Sorry Hrithik’ and ‘Apologise to Hrithik’ across X and Instagram.
Roshan responded with restraint, saying he preferred to wait for “the right context” and facts rather than react to trending narratives. His measured stance drew praise for avoiding escalation.

Ranaut has now issued a direct response to Roshan’s comment, writing: “Dear Hrithik, I am happy that you have found your perfect match, Saba Azad, and you both look great together. You are in a committed relationship, and it doesn’t suit you to tease a woman like this. Instead, you should condemn all those who are harassing and bullying me using your name. Stop adding fuel to the fire and embarrassing your partner. I hope better sense prevails and you stop making unreasonable comments.”
