Bollywood star Aamir Khan has landed himself in hot waters as he tried to insult the Hindu tradition and advocated the concept of ‘ghar jamai’.
Aamir Khan and Kiara Advani may not have done a movie together but a recent ad they collaborated on, has been creating waves on the internet. In the new advertisement related to the bank, the duo played a married couple in which they attempt to break the usual tradition of a woman going to ‘sasural’ by showing that a man can also be a ‘ghar jamai’.

I just fail to understand since when Banks have become responsible for changing social & religious traditions? I think @aubankindia should do activism by changing corrupt banking system.
Aisi bakwaas karte hain fir kehte hain Hindus are trolling. Idiots.pic.twitter.com/cJsNFgchiY— Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri (@vivekagnihotri) October 10, 2022
The ad ends with the line, ‘Badlaav humse hai’ (change should come from us). However, the ad did not go well with social media users who have been slamming it for insulting Hindu traditions.
Netizens took to social media to express their displeasure over the ad as they believed it to be a mockery of Hindu traditions. Some of them even went on to claim that only Hindus are targeted and asked to change and not any other religion.
Another fan wrote, “U should not disrespect out traditions. Will never think to invest with u after watching this. Banking is NO where related to this. Deliberate attempt to gain negative publicity. @ianuragthakur @nsitharaman @HMOIndia will u take action?”
