Mumbai: #BoycottDabangg3 has been trending on Twitter all through Friday morning after a section of netizens claimed that they are upset with Salman Khans upcoming movie “Dabangg 3” because the film allegedly hurts religious sentiments of Hindus.

They mentioned a scene in the song Hud Hud Dabangg, which shows sadhus (holy men) clad in saffron and dancing with guitars in their hands, is aimed at “maligning” and “insulting” Hindu culture, and hence demanded the boycott of the Sonakshi Sinha-starrer.

Since Friday morning, Twitter has been abuzz with angry tweets from netizens who demand that the film should be boycotted. As a result, the hashtag #BoycottDabangg3 started trending.

One user tweeted: “#BoycottDabangg3. In the film, Sages have been depicted as dancing with @BeingSalmanKhan in a hideous and objectionable manner on the bank of a river. Some Sages are shown playing guitar in a western style.”

Another user posted, “We are proud of our Sadhu, Maharshi who gave us many useful inventions to whom the whole world is following now! Insulating such great Sadhus is insulting our culture!! #BoycottDabangg3.”

Yet another tweet stated: “#BoycottDabangg3. Hindu Janajagruti Samiti has claimed that the film has hurt religious sentiments of the Hindu community”.

Demanding an apology from the film’s lead actor and co-producer Salman Khan, a user tweeted: “#BoycottDabangg3. Salman Khan has to apologise for this.
