A section of netizens was baffled to see Akshay holding flambeau when Jacqueline has a full-fledged lit torch in her hand. This encouraged the meme makers to take a dig at the poster. One of the users said, “Why is the guy holding a flame when the girl is holding a fully working torch?” while another pointing at the director said, “Director does a real bad job with mashaal and a torchlight being used in parallel.”

Many netizens even compared the poster to that of a low-budget ‘National Treasurer.’ One user wrote, “Why is this giving National treasure vibes but sasta version.”

Deathly hallows symbol. Waiting for a chaddiwala to claim that before deathly hallows was mentioned in Harry Potter, it was mentioned in Vedas thousands of years ago.#SabChangaSi https://t.co/mXixDXCCh6
