Trailer of film SADAK 2 |
Veteran Bollywood filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt`s latest offering SADAK 2 is at the centre of a controversy, even before its release. The trailer for the film, the first with younger daughter Alia Bhatt, was released on Wednesday but has quickly become the most-disliked video on YouTube in less than 24 hours. The trailer has received more than 4.5 million `dislikes` on the video-sharing platform, with a massively unfavorable `like-dislike` ratio. With more than 15 million views, only 2,55,000 people have `liked` the trailer. A campaign to make it the most disliked trailer on YouTube was initiated in the days leading up to its unveiling, by fans of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who died by suicide in June. Sushant`s fans have been propagating the conspiracy theory that the actor was ostracised by the film industry, most notably by `insiders`, which drove him to suicide. Mahesh Bhatt, had recently shared a message for fans saying, “Today as we begin the last leg of our journey. I feel unshackled! I carry no burden, no weight. No reputation to hold on to. No mission to accomplish. Nothing to prove to anyone. If the film works it belongs to all of you. If it does not, it`s mine.” SADAK 2 is a sequel to Mahesh Bhatt`s 1991 film starring Sanjay Dutt and Pooja Bhatt, and will be released on Disney+ Hotstar on 28th of August.
