The trailer of Ranbir Kapoor’s film ‘Shamshera’ has been released. A lot of hard work has been done on VFX in the film, which is also being appreciated by the viewers. However, some netizens are calling out Ranbir Kapoor for bestowing the Hindutva in the wrong way.
Anti-Brahmin
With just days to go for Shamshera to hit the big screens, the makers have unveiled the teaser of the Ranbir Kapoor-Sanjay Dutt starrer. While certain sections are impressed by the Shamshera trailer and even called it better than Brahmastra others slammed it for being ‘anti-Brahmin’ and anti-Hindutva.
While Ranbir looked like a ‘Lootera’ and a ‘warrior’ in the trailer, we did get a glimpse of Sanjay Dutt’s scary antagonist which later received criticism. A section of netizens took to Twitter and trolled Dutt as well as the film for showing the main villain as a Hindu. They called the film Shamshera anti-Hindu for showing Sanjay Dutt’s character Shuddh Singh sporting a Tripundra Tilak.

Portraying the "Villains with TILAK and with other Hindu identities " Is a malicious attempt of Bollywood to tarnish Hinduism. The new movie shamshera is yet another attempt by the karachiwood to defame Hinduism let's not let them be successful in it#BoycottShamshera pic.twitter.com/R8JQGACi5M

Another attempt of Bollywood to highlight Shiv Tilak and make Hindus the villains. No doubt, this movie deserves to be trashed in mass. #BoycottBollywood #BoycottShamshera pic.twitter.com/LUvLghjoUV

There is a reason why Bollywood is considered the breeding ground of Hinduphobia, Insulting Hindu Religion. Look how YRF is happy and saying that Evil never looked so good. Here the villain is BRAHMIN. Do you see the hatred towards Hindus?#BoycottShamshera #BoycottBollywood pic.twitter.com/uQlFD41Lrh

i don't understand when will bollywood stop portraying hindus as a villain? #Shamshera彡 in teaser itself showed the glimpses of the evil mind and hatred towards hinduism and our culture.
This is enough, we won't tolerate any longer.
