After the furore over Sunaina Roshan's recent tweets, and Rangoli Chandel's accusation about the Roshan family hounding her, Hrithik Roshan's ex-wife, Sussanne Khan, has stepped in with a statement to defend the family.
Posting on Instagram, Susanne wrote, "As a part of my experience with all concerned and in my life span of being a part of this close knit family, I know Sunaina, to be an extremely loving warm, caring person, who is in an unfortunate situation. Sunaina's father is undergoing a major health crisis. Her mother is herself vulnerable to say the least. Please respect a family's tough periods, each family goes through such times. I needed to say this as someone who has been a part of this family for long."
The furore erupted after Sunaina, Hrithik's sister, put up a tweet on 18 June, declaring her support for Kangana Ranaut. Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut have been at loggerheads since the latter accused Hrithik of being vindictive in a relationship.
While Hrithik Roshan has maintained a silence over the issue, the furore caused might force his hand. The actor is currently busy with the promotions of his upcoming film, Super 30 (2019), due to be released on 12 July.
