Netflix India’s viral post triggers fan wars

Netflix India recently shared an image on its X account featuring a collage of Ajith Kumar’s intense look from Vidaamuyarchi alongside Vijay’s similar expression from Leo. This post quickly went viral, leading to heated debates among fans.

Many Vijay fans expressed their displeasure, stating that Leo is a classic and should not be compared to Vidaamuyarchi. Social media was soon flooded with critical comments, with some users even resorting to abusive language.

While Netflix India likely intended the post for engagement, it unintentionally fueled toxic fan wars. Netizens believe that OTT platforms should be more responsible in their social media interactions to avoid such unnecessary conflicts.

Critics argue that such comparisons, even if meant for entertainment, often escalate into intense online fights. Many feel that platforms like Netflix India should avoid sharing content that could provoke rival fan bases.

After facing backlash, it remains uncertain whether Netflix India will change its approach to social media engagement in the future.
