Sushant Singh Rajput fans trend 'Boycott Flipkart' on Twitter after t-shirt with 'depression' quote over actor's face is listed on site

Chandigarh, July 27

Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput enjoyed a massive fan-following. Even after the actor’s untimely death, he regularly trends on Twitter with fans seeking justice for him.

However, this time, it isn’t the actor but the misuse of his picture by a popular e-commerce site that has left the fuming SSR fans starting a trend.

Hashtag ‘Boycott Flipkart’ gathered steam on Tuesday evening on Twitter after disgruntled fans of Sushant Singh Rajput spotted a tee with a reference to ‘depression’ over a picture of the actor on the e-commerce site.

A t-shirt was listed on Flipkart with an artwork of Sushant and a phrase “Depression is like drowning” written on it. Soon after spotting it, fans shared it across social media and “Boycott Flipkart” gained hype.

While many called the label out, some even criticised Flipkart for listing and marketing it on its site. They demanded that the article be taken down as soon as possible.

Since the product didn’t go down well with the fans, here’s how they reacted:

Shame on you @Flipkart. You want to malign a person who is no more to defend himself 💔#BoycottFlipkart

Slamming Flipkart, the enraged fans even filed grievances at the e-commerce site and served notice to the platform for stooping low and listing products with misleading quotes.

2. Someone has uploaded this (I have hidden the face printed on T-Shirt) on .@Flipkart which is defaming a deceased. Hence I’ll serve a notice to Flipkart team.

Also, #BoycottFlipkart for such reasons.
