Following the release of Sanya Malhotra's 'Mrs' on Zee5, which portrays a housewife's sacrificed dreams, Kangana Ranaut indirectly criticized the film's concept through Instagram. Without naming the film, Ranaut referenced scriptures, stating marriage's purpose is for children and elders, not personal validation. She shared her childhood observations of empowered housewives who controlled household decisions, from daily routines to finances. Ranaut recalled how women in her experience ruled their homes, managed their husbands' expenses, and found joy in domestic duties like cooking, contrasting with the film's portrayal of suppressed housewives. Kangana Ranaut defended traditional family structures, emphasizing how women controlled household wellness and served as emotional pillars. She criticized modern narratives that demonize joint families and devalue homemaking, arguing against comparisons between housewives and working professionals or equating child-rearing with forced labor. Without naming the film, Kangana criticized its concept and wrote, please understand that marriage is not done for validation or attention, but to do the best for the most vulnerable people. It is necessary for the elderly and children. Both are helpless, that's what the scriptures say. Our parents did everything for us and the elders, but never questioned. They just did it. Kangana criticises Bollywood's portrayal of marriage, emphasising it should focus on dharma (duty) rather than validation. She warns against seeking excessive recognition, advocates preserving joint family systems, and discourages divorce and abandonment of elderly parents.Original Article by Dainik Bhaskar
