Mumbai, Oct 16 (IANS) : A hashtag demanding the boycott of the upcoming Akshay Kumar-starrer horror comedy, Laxmmi Bomb, has been trending all through Friday.

This is because Akshay Kumars character in the film is reportedly titled Asif while Kiara Advani plays a girl named Priya."#BoycottLaxmmiBomb for unfair and stereotypical representation of trans community.
stop this religious angle to discriminate art mediums," tweeted a user on Friday."This would be called a communal film and will be banned if the title is MOHAMMAD BOMB.
If guy is Hindu and girl is Muslim.Just asking.#BoycottLaxmmiBomb," shared another user.
"Can You Rename LuxmiBomb To Salma Bomb or Ayesha Bomb? A Fake Nationlist @akshaykumar #ShameOnUAkshayKumar #BoycottLaxmmiBomb," wrote another user."Hey Canadian Kumar, Do you have guts to name your movie Fatima Bomb instead of Laxmmi Bomb? No one is allowed to play with our religious sentiments.#BoycottLaxmmiBomb #ShameOnUAkshayKumar," retorted a user."Why defame hindu goddesses and gods.
