Should the movie 'Kubera' be boycotted? Why?

These days, it has become common for fans to raise the boycott trend on social media. If an objectionable or unpleasant element is seen in any movie, they immediately call for a boycott of that movie and provoke the audience. In a similar vein, a similar incident took place regarding the movie ‘Kubera’ starring Akkineni Nagarjuna and Dhanush in the lead roles. Surprisingly, it was Dhanush’s fans who called for a boycott of this movie.

However, this whole fight was due to a small misunderstanding. On May 23, 2025, the movie’s promotion team released a teaser poster featuring Nagarjuna. His fans, who felt that Dhanush was being sidelined, were disappointed and expressed their displeasure on social media. They immediately started trending the hashtag ‘Boycott Kubera’.

However, the intention behind the first poster was to celebrate Nagarjuna's 39-year milestone in the Indian film industry. It was not to ignore Dhanush. After this backlash, the film team immediately released a new poster featuring Dhanush and cleared the misunderstanding. With this quick response, the anger of the fans subsided and tensions eased. Now everything is back to normal. There is no controversy regarding the movie 'Kubera' at the moment.
