KJo faces flak for 'disrespecting' Rabindranath Tagore in 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani' trailer
F
ilmmaker Karan Johar has faced severe criticism after the unveiling of the trailer of his upcoming film 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani'.
Karan has received backlash over disrespecting Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore in one of the sequences of the trailer of his upcoming film.
In the trailer when Ranveer's character Rocky comes over to Alia Bhatt's character Rani's house for a three-month stay as per arrangement, he comes across a portrait of Rabindranath Tagore, whom he shockingly identifies as Rani's grandfather.
Further, the joke cracked on Rabindranath Tagore didn't impress Bengalis. Many on social media slammed Karan Johar for disrespecting Rabindranath Tagore.
A user wrote Though the trailer is fun, but flabbergasted by this frame. Not in good taste.
One said Maybe he thought just showing lavish sets, rich clothes will be more than enough for the audience.
