A section of the internet is upset with Eros Now for allegedly “violating” the religious festival of Navratri by “mocking” and “insulting” it.
Just a small sample of the Hinduphobic posts by @ErosNow on Twitter and Instagram.
It seems brands have started offending Hindus to get cheap attention. Don’t let this attention come for “cheap”. pic.twitter.com/LFLCyAZL32

We strongly support #BoycottErosNow and condemn their #Hinduphobic behavior.
Vulgar video post are made for #DurgaPuja and #Dandiya but @ErosNow was very sensitive (Sanskari) while wishing #Eid …
We can’t tolerate such anti Hindu campaign.
