For the unversed, recently, director Anurag Kashyap and the leading lady of the film Taapsee Pannu were seen urging people to boycott their film. WHile sharing their views on the growing cancel culture on social media and the calls for boycotting Bollywood films, Taapsee Pannu and Anurag Kashyap requested netizens to make their film trend by boycotting it.
Anurag Kashyap told Siddharth Kanan, "I am feeling left out. Even I want ki meri film boycott karo...please make our film trend on Twitter by boycotting." Adding to this, Taapsee Pannu said, " Yes please boycott Dobaaraa trend karva do...we also want to trend on Twitter."

How can you win against this #BoycottLalSinghChaddha #BoycottDobaara #ArjunKapoor," wrote a netizen on Twitter.
"They’re faking to be cool with the #BoycottBollywood but dying a million deaths internally. They were feeling left out & wanted to trend. Lo trend karte hai #BoycottDobaara . They are Rabid Hindu Haters. Anurag Kashyap is next level. Hypocrite Taapsee Pannu needs no introduction," tweeted a netizen.
