The movie revolves around an alien who visits the planet earth only to be bewildered by the way people here function in the name of religion and God. Those who have watched Akshay Kumar’s OMG – Oh My God!—will surely relate with the way Aamir’s character puts a question mark on how we blindly follow anything in the name of God and religion.
However, given the fact that the plot involves a Godman from a specific religion has not gone too well with some of the audiences, resulting in the Twitter trend #BoycottPK. The tweets come from the followers of that particular religion, asking why the makers targeted one religion and not many others that have been wronging the society.
Well, boycotting a particular film for one reason or the other is very common in India. However, PK has set a new record here as well. While on one hand, the hashtag #BoycottPK is trending, the liberal audience is also trying hard to trend the hashtag #WeSupportPK, which by the way has become the number one trend in India.
