Kareena Kapoor Khan's recent advertisement for jewellery firm Malabar Gold has received criticism on social media because the actress is seen in Akshay Tritya's special ad without a bindi. The actress is seen in the commercial wearing an embroidered pink lehnga with an intricate diamond neckpiece, enormous earrings, and a maang tika. The absence of Bindi on Kareena's forehead, however, drew everyone's notice. Netizens chastised the brand for advertising a Hindu celebration without depicting Hindu married women properly. Akshay Kumar, the Bollywood action hero, recently issued a public apology after Twitterati chastised him for being affiliated with a pan masala brand.
