Sunny Deol has come under social media scrutiny after an old Santoor Meetha Pan Masala advertisement featuring him resurfaced online. The clip went viral soon after the actor spoke about refusing to endorse pan masala, gutka or alcohol products.
The advertisement drew attention because it appeared to contradict Sunny’s recent comments. Many social media users questioned the difference between his current position and his past endorsement, triggering widespread discussion across online platforms.
During a recent podcast, Sunny reportedly said that his conscience does not allow him to promote tobacco, pan masala or alcohol-related products. He also stated that he would reject such endorsements regardless of the money being offered.
Soon after those remarks gained attention, users shared an old Santoor Meetha Pan Masala commercial featuring Sunny Deol and Ravi Kishan. The advertisement quickly went viral, with many pointing out the contrast between his earlier campaign and his present stand.
The controversy has sparked a broader debate about celebrity endorsements and public responsibility. Many users are discussing whether actors should be judged for products they promoted in the past or only by their current choices.
Sunny Deol continues to enjoy a strong phase in his career following the success of Gadar 2. He has remained active with films such as Jaat and Border 2, while Batwara 1947, previously titled Lahore 1947, is also part of his upcoming lineup.
However, Batwara 1947 has faced strong competition from Emraan Hashmi’s Awarapan 2. Despite the ongoing box office battle, the resurfaced advertisement has become a major talking point surrounding Sunny Deol.
