The caser pertains to an anti-Hindu poster that first surfaced in August 2016. 5 years ago an agency ScrollDrol created an advertisement for Myntra. In the advertisement, an illustration was shown from a scene Mahabharata --Draupadi's Chirharan. The graphic showed that Krishna was searching for 'extra long' sarees on the Myntra app when Dushasana was doing Draupadi's Chirharan. The advertisement was seen in a very poor taste, with Indians calling it an anti-Hindu poster.


Myntra had in August clarified that the company did not create this artwork nor does it endorse this.






However, Twitterati does not seem to be in a mood to reason it out and have once again started trending hashtag #BoycottMyntra and #UninstallMyntra.
