Mumbai, Oct 2 (IANS): Known to speak her heart out, actress Kangana Ranaut has questioned that why Hrithik Roshan's father had to come for his rescue after issues between her and the actor surfaced earlier this year.

Hrithk's father Rakesh Roshan in a recent interview had said: "Hrithik is different. Even when someone was spreading lies about him, he chose to stay calm and dignified. If he does choose to come out with the truth, it will shock everyone."

However, this didn't go down well with Kangana following which she questioned that why daddys have to always save their sons.

"Why can't Indian men stand up for themselves? He (Hrithik) is a 43-year-old man; why his father has to come for his rescue always. For how long a father will keep hiding ...for their influential big names. He is an adult he can pretty much handle his own controversies in show business. Its just a simple controversy why daddys have to always save their sons I don't understand it," Kangana Ranaut said at the unveiling of author Chetan Bhagat's novel, One Indian Girl today in Mumbai.

Issues between the two surfaced when Kangna hinted at Hrithik being her "ex" when she said in an interview that she fails to understand "why exes do silly things to get your attention".
