Kangana Ranaut has reacted to the viral placard held by a kid a few days ago during an IPL match. During RCB's (Royal Challengers Bangalore) match against MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings (CSK), a photo of a boy holding a placard for Virat Kohli had grabbed the attention of netizens on social media. The child holding the placard made a special request to Virat and actor-wife Anushka Sharma. The placard read, "Hi Virat uncle. Can I take Vamika on a date?" (

Kangana Ranaut calls out the parents of the kid who held the viral placard at an IPL match.

Reacting to the viral picture of the kid, Kangana took to Twitter and wrote in Hindi, "Massom baccho ko yeh behuda baate na sikhaaye, issey aap modern ya cool nahi ashlil or ffol lagte ho." (Don't teach these nonsense to innocent children, it makes you look vulgar and foolish, not modern or cool.)

The picture had divided the internet where many called out the parents of the boy for making such an 'insensitive' and 'creepy' request to gain attention. "I shudder to imagine how creepy and insensitive the kid's parents are. The kid looks innocent - often it is the parent leading kids the wrong way. All for a moment of camera time?," a user commented. "Parents should be publicly called out for such horrible parenting. Sick." said another.

Earlier, Virat and Anushka had urged the paparazzi to respect the privacy of their daughter Vamika by not clicking her photos. “While we will always ensure that you get all the content you need featuring us, we would request you to kindly not take or carry any content that has our child. We know that you will understand where we are coming from and we thank you for the same,” the couple had said.
