Amid the raging debate around nepotism, the official trailer Sadak 2 featuring Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt, Aditya Roy Kapur and Pooja Bhatt dropped on Wednesday and needless to say, it was heavily trolled on social media.
The film marks the directorial return on Mahesh Bhatt, who has been in the social media storm following the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
Dropped only a few hours ago on the video-sharing platform, the trailer has already been downvoted over 400K times as the comments section flooded with comments from raging fans, expressing their displeasure over the 'star kids'.
However, netizens also took to Twitter to trend #BoycottSadak2 and amplify their cries over 'nepo kids' through a series of memes.
