Rupali Ganguly, acclaimed for her role as Anupama in the popular TV show Anupamaa alongside Gaurav Khanna, has received immense love and appreciation from audiences. However, recent events involving Gaurav’s wife, Akanksha Chamola, have sparked a social media controversy that Ganguly has now addressed.
Earlier today, Akanksha faced backlash for a video where she was seen dropping her pet cat, an act that many online users deemed insensitive. The video drew harsh criticism, and some tweets even accused Rupali Ganguly of instigating negative comments against Akanksha and Gaurav.
On June 15, Rupali took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to respond to these accusations. Addressing a user’s tweet that alleged she had a role in defaming the couple, Rupali wrote, “Please make it clear that how much you have been paid by @TheRupali PR team to downgrade #Gauravkhanna and his wife. You are the most cruel and disgusting for insulting #AkankshaChamola who has nothing to do with crap #Anupamaa show.”
Rupali dismissed the claims, urging critics to approach her directly rather than making assumptions. She responded to the allegations by writing, “Why don’t you come and meet me and then you can happily ask me this. Jai Mata Di.”
Emphasizing the need for kindness and restraint in online interactions, Rupali highlighted the importance of promoting positivity. She expressed concern that dragging families into public disagreements could detract from important causes, such as animal welfare, which she passionately supports.
In another tweet, Rupali Ganguly urged her followers, “Requesting everyone to let the positives not be overshadowed by the negativity. Also please DONOT drag the families into the regular slamfests.”
The controversy began when Akanksha Chamola posted a video comparing a kitten to a child. In the video, she holds a white kitten, kisses it, and then drops it on the ground, commenting that kittens are more fun than human kids because you can cuddle them all day and easily handle them by picking them up and dropping them anywhere.
Rupali Ganguly has had a distinguished career, starring in several successful television shows such as Sarabhai Vs. Sarabhai, Sanjeevni, and Parvarrish – Kuchh Khattee Kuchh Meethi. Currently, she continues to captivate audiences with her role in Anupamaa alongside Gaurav Khanna.
As the situation unfolds, Rupali Ganguly remains a strong advocate for positivity and respect, urging everyone to focus on kindness rather than negativity in their interactions.
