An old pan masala advertisement featuring actor Sunny Deol and Ravi Kishan has resurfaced online, prompting renewed criticism from social media users. In response to the attention, Deol says he does not take part in pan masala advertising and would not do so in the future.
According to NDTV, Deol makes the comments in a recent podcast, where he states that he “doesn’t do pan masala ads” and “wouldn’t” do such work. The resurfacing of the earlier commercial leads to questions about his position and whether he should have acknowledged or distanced himself from the past endorsement.
Across the coverage, the central points are the reappearance of the older advertisement and Deol’s public clarification that he does not support or plan to participate in pan masala ads going forward. Different online reactions reflect varying levels of scrutiny, including debates about personal responsibility and consistency, but the reporting consistently centers on Deol’s denial and the renewed circulation of the advertisement.
