Rakul said, “Well, honestly, if I found out that my son was gay, I would be shocked. I would probably slap him. But then later, I feel choosing your sexuality is one’s own decision, and if he wants to go ahead with that, I have no problems. As far as I am concerned, I prefer to be straight."
Rakul’s answer didn’t sit right with some Redditors. One person wrote, “Wtf was that answer? 💀 And also, why would you say I prefer to be straight? 🌚" Another added, “Her answer consists of abuse and ignorance. Not a good look. Hope she has grown." One comment read, “Wait, what? Being straight or gay isn’t about preference; it’s not something you just choose. It doesn’t work like that yaar!!"
However, some people even defended the actress. One comment read, “Avg Indian mom would react like that." Another comment read, “She was honest and non-diplomatic." Another person wrote, “She didn’t lie though."
Meanwhile, on the work front, Rakul Preet Singh was last seen in Mere Husband Ki Biwi with Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar. The film didn’t perform well at the box office.
