Hyderabad: Social media sites flooding with boycott trends or threatening a ban on certain actors or their films has become a norm now. While the industry is still grappling to deal with the aftermath of actor Sushant Singh Rajput's demise and the dirt beneath the gloss that continues to dissipate, on Sunday morning, #BoycottBollywood makes a roaring comeback on Twitter.
The netizens are taking to social media to share their opinions on various aspects that they think Bollywood has got wrong. Some keyboard warriors are bringing up the age-old nepotism and favouritism debate. Few others have accused the Hindi film industry of hurting sentiments and mocking only Hindu deities and done so under the garb of wokeness.

The tweeple are also demanding long-awaiting justice in Sushant's case and in the same breath predicting the failure of Deepika Padukone and her husband Ranveer Singh's upcoming films. Some have even dug out old pictures of Kareena Kapoor Khan ignoring an underprivileged child and made a collage of her pictures along with images of SSR who is happily hugging the poor kids.
Saif Ali Khan's Tandav, Sara Ali Khan and Varun Dhawan's Coolie No 1 and Ranveer's upcoming sports drama 83 are on netizens' hitlist as they are coming heavily on makers and actors associated with these projects. Bollywood drug cartel and the recent death of Bigg Boss talent manager Pista Dhakad are also being discussed on the platform.

Many social media users have also questioned whether trending such hashtags really helps as every other day these topics attract the frenzy of social media users but the enthusiasm to bring about the change, unfortunately, die down with the hashtag until it makes a comeback subject to the whims of the social media users.
