Mahesh Bhatt’s Sadak 2 has been on the headlines for all the wrong reasons. The trailer of the film starring Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Dutt and Aditya Roy Kapur dropped a few days back and ever since then it has been garnering more dislikes than likes on Youtube.

According to India Today’s Data Intelligence Unit (DIU), reports BusinessToday. In, Sadak 2 got 11.3 million dislikes following 11.6 million dislikes for pop star Justin Bieber‘s 2010 song Baby and the highest 18.2 million (dislikes) for a video posted by YouTube itself, a rewind of the year 2018.

The trailer of Sadak 2 has been trolled by netizens as it is seen by people as a shining example of nepotism in Bollywood. The subject if nepotism, favouritism has become the hot topic since actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s tragic demise in June.
