Rashmika Mandanna trolled for promoting non-veg burger in ad
cancel

The world of social media doesn’t spare anyone including celebrities who have to face their own share of controversies. An instance is the backlash popular actress Rashmika Mandanna has been facing for a recent advert she was part of.

She featured in an advertisement for a popular burger brand in India, promoting their spicy chicken burger, munching on it.

The ad for the chicken burger was shared on the official handle of Rashmika Mandanna as well as the fast food brand.

The advertisement quickly drew the ire of internet users with many pointing out that promoting a non-veg burger when Mandanna herself was a vegetarian wasn’t right.

Many commented that Mandanna had given several interviews in the past where she claimed she is a vegetarian. They also pointed out that the actress was the brand ambassador and investor of a vegan beauty brand.

Content creator Garima Kumar also pointed out that post the controversy, the comments on the advertisement had been disabled.

While many criticised her, several others came out in her support. They said that it was just an advertisement and it did not imply that she was a non-vegetarian in real life too.

"She is only endorsing junk food, she didn't ask us to go and eat. It's ultimately our choice. Similarly, it's their choice which advertisement they want to do," wrote one user.

This is not the first time food advertisement featuring a celebrity have stirred up a debate. In August 2022, Hrithik Roshan too starred in a Zomato ad which invited brutal trolling. The ad was later withdrawn and an apology was issued.
