As soon as Kareena Kapoor Khan’s statement made its way on the internet, a series of people started trolling the actress all over again. The netizens made fun of Kareena for labelling Bollywood movies as a source of entertainment. While some stated that Bollywood isn’t working on their scripts as most of their films are remakes of hit South Indian films, many people hailed OTT as a direct rival to Bollywood. Not only this, some people even reminded Kareena of her old statement in which she told people not to go to theatres if they don’t want to watch Bollywood movies. 

This isn’t the first time when Kareena Kapoor Khan is getting trolled for her take on the 'Boycott Bollywood' trend in India. Time and again, we have seen people bombarding the comment section of the actress’ social media handles with comments like ‘Boycott Kareena’.

From boycotting their films to avoiding the products endorsed by them, the campaign shook the entire Hindi film industry to the core.
