The controversy began when Harshvardhan announced that he would not participate in the sequel of ‘Sanam Teri Kasam’ if Mavra Hocken was involved. The decision condemned India’s Operation Sindoor following the post of Mavra, which he described as a cowardly attack. Mavra criticized Harshvardhan’s exit as “PR Strategy”, “someone has expected a basic common sense, with a PR strategy to grow from a deep slamb. While our nation is in war, is this what comes with you? To draw a PR statement attention? What is a mercy? “Harshvardhan replied on Instagram, called Mavra’s comment a personal attack.
