#BoycottRakshaBandhan
A few days before the release of the film, writer Kanika Dhillon’s tweet was found to be 'Hinduphobic' by a few people on the platform. Therefore, #BoycottRakshaBandhan started trending on Twitter.
While promoting the film in Kolkata, Kumar said, “It is a free country, everyone can do what they want. But this all (Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan) helps the economy of India.”
He further added, “We are all on the verge of becoming the biggest and the greatest country. I would request them (trolls) and you (media), don’t get into it (cancel culture).”

Twinkle Khanna
Applauding the film on Instagram, author and columnist Twinkle Khanna wrote, “Raksha Bandhan made me laugh in the first half and cry through the second.”
She said the film was about the India that we all pretend doesn’t exist. “A reality that we wish didn’t exist,” she added.

The columnist said, “The challenge with altering mindsets is that these conversations circulate largely among the already-converted. It’s perhaps only cinema that has the power to burrow into the minds and hearts of people across the world.”
