At a recent event, actress Sonali Kulkarni drew flak when she said during her speech that ‘girls were lazy’ and went onto give examples of how, according to her, they needed a husband or boyfriend to fulfil their wishes. Her comment went viral and several users felt offended. The actress has now offered a clarification and an apology.

In a detailed statement on her official Instagram page, Sonali Kulkarni said: “…If unknowingly, I may have caused pain, I want to apologise from the bottom of my heart. I do not want to be the centre of sensational situations. I’m a diehard optimist and strongly believe that life indeed is beautiful. Thanks for your patience and support…”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
