Another user wrote, "Wild how Azul is viral while people ignore that #GuruRandhawa sexualized schoolgirls and compared them to alcohol. Promoting pedophilia isn’t edgy; it’s disgusting. Yet he acts high and mighty, shading others".

"Someone like Guru Randhawa, who holds such significant cultural influence, cannot afford to be so insensitive as to produce a music video that objectifies or sexualises minor schoolgirls, compares them to a liquor", wrote the third user.

It even caught actor Sonam Kapoor's attention, too, after a news publication shared on Instagram on how the singer has not only sexualised school girls but also compared them to various alcohol brands – available for sale. The actress liked the post on social media, agreeing to the 'objectification' in the song.
