Why is #BoycottBrahmastra trending? Ranbir Kapoor's film 'hurts religious sentiments'

From the trailer, it appeared like the upcoming film 'Brahmastra' is borrowing heavily from Hindu mythology.

Many netizens were awestruck by the outstanding VFX work in the film, while others were just excited about theIndian superhero saga. But amid all, the trailer landed in trouble after some hawk-eyed netizens spotted the small 'issue'.

The movie shows Ranbir playing the character named after the Indian god Shiva. In the trailer, Ranbir's character is a free-spirited man before he finds out about the superpower he possesses.

Apart from his character, the trailer shows the star-studded castof Alia Bhatt, playing Ranbir's love interest, Amitabh Bachchan, the one who will guide Ranbir to find his superpowers. Mouni Roy is the antagonistand Nagarjuna Akkineni is playing the role of Anish.

After spotting the mistake, Twiitarati called out the makers for hurting religious sentiments.

Some even commented that this movie is against Hinduism and is another example of Bollywood films ''mocking Hindu Gods and Religious practices.''
