Pooja Bhatt Slams Dabur for Withdrawing an Ad Featuring a Lesbian Couple Celebrating Karwa Chauth
Dabur's ad was about a cream bleach product that showcased a same-sex couple celebrating Karwa Chauth. The brand also apologised 'for unintentionally hurting people’s sentiments' via a statement.
Recently, Dabur's Fem brand during Karwa Chauth 2021 dropped an ad that featured a lesbian duo celebrating the Indian festival. However, the ad received outrage from a section of people and so the brand pulled down the advertisement. Now, Pooja Bhatt has criticised the brand for its act. She wrote, "Pity a giant like #Dabur refused to stand behind their AD."
Pooja Bhatt Slams Dabur:
बस यही करते रहो.. slam,bam,ban! So much for being the ‘Mother’ of democracy! Pity a giant like #Dabur refused to stand behind their AD. While I don’t endorse a fairness cream in principal I reserved my comment as they attempted to celebrate Inclusivity & #PRIDE So why hide now? https://t.co/avzq1XafgW
