publive-imageRishabh Pant's TV commercial for the Dream 11 app has created a stir on social media. The cricketer portrays a classical singer in the ad, which is a dream sequence, and later calls himself lucky for not choosing the occupation. This context has made many people unhappy, and they are reacting as strongly and as hard as they can against it.

Hansal Mehta wrote, "This is a disgusting and disrespectful commercial. Pimp yourself but not at the cost of ridiculing art and its rich traditions. I demand that @Dream11 pulls this down."

Singer Kaushiki Chakraborty said, " I don’t have words to express my disgust and the ugliness of this commercial. Disrespecting your legacy makes you look like a fool, @RishabhPant17 .This is the music of Pdt Ravi Shankar, Utd Zakir Hussain, Pdt Bhimsen Joshi. I’m sure you earn a fortune by doing this, but is it worth it?"

She added, " I’m a practising Indian classical musician, and I don’t follow cricket, but I’ve never disrespected your field of work. When u haven't been trained to understand something at least be sensible enough to be respectful towards it. Making fun of your heritage makes you look like a fool"
