Model-actor Milind Soman and director Rahul Dholakia have sent out a message to trolls amid boycott calls to Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan.

Aamir Khan starrer Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar starrer Raksha Bandhan, scheduled to release on August 11, have been targeted by netizens and there have been calls to boycott both the films on social media platforms for the past controversial statements made by their leading heroes.

Now, actor and model Milind Soman, who was last seen in 2021 Tamil action-comedy Doctor starring Sivakarthikeyan in the lead,  has sent out a message to trolls as he took to his Twitter account and wrote, "Trolls can't stop a good film :)" supporting both the AKs - Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar.

Director Rahul Dholakia, who last helmed Shah Rukh Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer Raees in 2017, also came out in support of both the films as he tweeted, "Trolling a film because a cast or crew members ideology differs from yours is unfair to the other hundreds who have worked hard to make the film. They have also pinned their hopes on the success of the film to help realizes their dreams. Spare a thought."
