From cocktail dresses to lehenga cholis, jeans to saris, bikinis to salwar kameez, from all the options that are available to us today why would you tie your brother a rakhi in your bikini/undergarments? Where are all your styling options? Ha ha the advert looks intentionally creepy!”
Adding to this, Several users have raised questions over the star's revealing outfit for the occasion. One user commented on X, “Where is Puja Ki thali? Why are you wearing bra in front of your brother? Is this a Raksha Bandhan? Where is Tilak?” Another comment read, "That Kriti Sanon ad seems deliberate.

Shame on you @kritisanon.” Kriti has not responded to the backlash.
