The boycott Bollywood, the hashtags, the screams and debates etc nothing stopped Laxmmi Bomb trailer from becoming a hit. It got 70 million views on day one and might get more in the coming weeks. Even Amir Khan tweeted that he loved the trailer. Akshay Kumar was jittery and people trolled him for his nonchalant and indifferent attitude and were vocal enough and wanted a boycott of his Diwali film. He was afraid that the film would bomb and the distributors would lose heavily.
Also this is the pandemic season and if economic interests are hurt, it will be difficult to launch another film. This is why he sounded apologetic and asked people to see the film in a promo video before the trailer was released. Kanchana, a Telugu film was made into all languages and it was a resounding success which is why Akshay Kumar was a producer. The trailer is a hit and trade pundits say that people’s anger is short lived and they will forget all these issues when the movie releases. Laxmmi Bomb will have a direct to digital release on Disney+ Hotstar during Diwali this year. It is about a man possessed by a spirit of a transgender person. Kiara Advani is the heroine.
