The trailer of Raksha Bandhan, headlined by Akshay Kumar, was released amid much fanfare on Tuesday, June 21. Based on the bond between brother-sister, the film directed by Aanand L. Rai features the Khiladi actor who wants his four sisters to get married before he can tie the knot with his love interest played by Bhumi Pednekar.
Since the trailer launch, the film has become a target of online trolls who are severely criticising Akshay's look in the film with several netizens pointing out the fact that his look with moustache is similar to his previous films such as Jolly LLB, Gold, and the recently released box office failure Samrat Prithviraj.
"Baki sab to thik hai, Same look kyu hai har movie mai - Jolly LLB, Toilet Ek Prem Katha, Gold , PRC, RB, Bachchhan Paandey mein bhi tha thoda sa, Bell Bottom mein bhi yahi look tha", wrote one Twitter user.
Another Twitter user said that the actor has been using the same old moustache kept at his home for his every film as he tweeted, "Are bhaiya, Aajkal jab log realistic look rakhte hain, looks ka bahut dhyaan dete hain, Tumne fir vahi khel kar diya...Ghar me padi purani mooch laga li. Bhaiya paisa kamaane ke chakkar me fans ko sharminda karte hue sharm nahi aati? Bina mooch ke bhi ye role ho skta tha".
"#AkshayKumar never works properly on looks for his films. Just apply moustache if he wants change. Many Film in same look. #RakshaBandhan", read another tweet.
Here are some of the tweets
