“Aisi bakwaas karte hain fir kehte hain Hindus are trolling”: The Kashmir Files director Vivek Agnihotri reacts to Aamir Khan-Kiara Advani’s new ad

Aamir Khan and Kiara Advani’s new advertisement is receiving flak on the social media for allegedly hurting sentiments of Hindus.

In the new commercial of AU Small Finance Bank, the actors play a married couple who attempt to break the usual tradition of a woman going to ‘sasural’ by showing that a man can also be a ‘ghar jamai’. The ad ends with the line, ‘Badlaav humse hai’ (change should come from us).

However, the ad didn’t go down well with netizens and they are bashing it for insulting Hindu traditions. Now, 'The Kashmir Files' filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has reacted to the controversy.

Sharing the video on the Twitter, Vivek Agnihotri slammed the ad and called the makers ‘idiots’. He tweeted: “I just fail to understand since when Banks have become responsible for changing social & religious traditions? I think @aubankindia should do activism by changing corrupt banking system. Aisi bakwaas karte hain fir kehte hain Hindus are trolling. Idiots.”
