Public Outrage Erupts as 49-Year-Old Nawazuddin Siddiqui Kisses 21-Year-Old Avneet Kaur in 'Tiku Weds Sheru' Trailer
The recently released trailer for the upcoming Bollywood film "Tiku Weds Sheru," featuring renowned actors Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur, has sparked a heated debate. At the center of the controversy is a passionate kissing scene between the 49-year-old Nawazuddin Siddiqui and the 21-year-old Avneet Kaur, which has ignited discussions and divided public opinion. Not only the actors but also the film's producer, Kangana Ranaut, has faced scrutiny and criticism across various social media platforms.
While the overall response to the film's trailer has been positive, one particular scene has captured significant attention. The trailer showcases a romantic moment between Avneet Kaur and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, with their on-screen chemistry being a focal point. However, this specific scene has triggered controversy and has become the subject of criticism among viewers. A still from the trailer, capturing the kissing scene between the two actors, has gone viral on social media platforms.
Fans and viewers have expressed their concerns regarding the casting of the film, primarily due to the noticeable 28-year age difference between Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur. Given that the film revolves around a love story, these two actors were selected to portray the lead roles. However, the on-screen chemistry depicted in the trailer failed to resonate with many fans, resulting in relentless trolling and criticism directed towards both Nawazuddin and Avneet on social media.
One user commented, "I have a problem with this casting. How did they decide to pair Nawazuddin and Avneet as husband and wife? Did the casting director lose his mind or something? She is just a young girl."
Now these filmmakers are promoting pedophilia. Avneet Kaur who was aged about 18 years at the time of shooting is kissing a man aged 47 at the time of shooting. Totally disgusting. pic.twitter.com/W3vP8KtexP

Another user remarked, "Romance with a 50-year-old man? She is the same age as me."
Several users pointed out the significant age gap, with one user humorously stating, "Nawaz's age is 49, Avneet's age is 21. That's a whopping 28-year age difference. What were they thinking when casting this?"
