Today marks the release of Shah Rukh Khan’s highly-anticipated movie, ‘Jawaan,’ and Twitter has been ablaze with hashtags and discussions surrounding the film. As the excitement builds around the film’s debut, Twitter witnessed a heated hashtag battle from past couple of days. The drama began with the hashtag #BoycottJawan, which gained traction. This isn’t the first time such boycott campaigns have emerged when big Bollywood films are about to hit the screens. Over the years, numerous films have faced similar negativity, with certain groups consistently targeting Hindi films. Allegations suggest that some extremist factions, particularly those with religious motivations, have been behind these negative hashtag movements.
However, this time, the boycott campaign took an unexpected turn. Netizens began to realize that there were ulterior motives behind these hashtags, and they began to flip the narrative. Not only did Shah Rukh Khan’s loyal fanbase rally behind him, but neutral netizens also expressed their displeasure with the boycott movement. The attempt to boycott ‘Jawaan’ ultimately backfired and generated sympathy for the film, resulting in a surprisingly successful opening.
The boycott campaign, which aimed to tarnish Shah Rukh Khan’s latest movie, ended up strengthening the film’s position. It served as a powerful reminder that negativity can sometimes have the opposite effect. This unexpected turn of events dealt a blow to the boycott campaigners.
Despite this, Shah Rukh Khan continued to face negativity as old comments resurfaced, accompanied by hashtags calling for a boycott of ‘Jawaan,’ citing various reasons. Some even linked the release of Udayanidhi Stalin’s ‘Jawaan’ in Tamil Nadu to the boycott, associating it with Hindu Sanatana Dharma.
In response, Shah Rukh Khan’s dedicated fans took to Twitter, creating positive hashtags for ‘Jawaan’ and the actor himself, which quickly gained momentum. This Twitter battle raged on throughout the day, but the film ‘Jawaan’ remained unaffected by the negativity, standing strong against the boycott campaign.
Today, as ‘Jawaan’ makes its much-anticipated debut, Shah Rukh Khan’s fans are rallying in support of the film. The Twitter battle may have been fierce, but it serves as a testament to the unwavering loyalty of Shah Rukh Khan’s fans, who stand strong against the boycott campaigners, ensuring the film receives the attention and acclaim it deserves.
