A hashtag demanding the boycott of the upcoming Akshay Kumar-starrer horror comedy, Laxmmi Bomb, has been trending on Twitter.

The reasons for trend are multiple. While one section of netizens are alleging stereotypical representation of the transgender community, others feel the film's title is derogatory as it insults the Hindu Goddess Laxmi. Still others accuse the film of promoting love jihad. This is because Akshay Kumar's character in the film is reportedly titled Asif while Kiara Advani plays a girl named Priya.
