अक्षय कुमार अब ओवर एक्टिंग के शिकार हो गए हैं। अगर वो खुद अपनी लेटेस्ट रिलीज़ फिल्में देख लें तो उन्हें खुद की एक्टिंग पर शर्म आएगी। pic.twitter.com/rGpc6TGjE2

So much disappointed with #PrithivrajTrailer . Neither @akshaykumar has that kind of personality nor he looks anywhere close to maharaj #PrithvirajChauhan .The impact of an actor for such an iconic character is missing. Instead of akki they could have casted #RajatTokas

एक एक्टर होता है जो हर कैरेक्टर में घुसकर वो कैरेक्टर बन जाता है और एक अक्षय कुमार हैं जो हर कैरेक्टर में घुसकर उस कैरेक्टर को अक्षय कुमार बना देते हैं।@akshaykumar @yrf #PrithvirajTrailer #Prithviraj #PrithvirajChauhan #Prithvirajteaser #PrithivrajTrailer #Prithviraj3rdJune pic.twitter.com/Wb5Fw3eB9F

Here are some users’ reactions

Yashraj should’ve thought of Rajat Tokas for PrithviRaj’s role. He nailed it then, he could’ve done now as well. Just wearing king like clothes doesn’t make u king, u got to have that personality  expression #PrithvirajTrailer pic.twitter.com/2Bxusm2FTA

A certain section of netizens have bashed Prithviraj, and it seems like the theatrical trailer has missed the mark on impressing the masses. Now it entirely depends on how the film will turn out to be. After the team Prithiviraj launched the trailer on Monday, actress Manushi Chhillar opened on the response she has received for her character of Sanyogita. Manushi says, “It is amazing that people are appreciating my performance from what they have seen and experienced in the Prithviraj trailer. This is a dream come true of a debut for me and I’m hugely grateful that I’m getting to bring Princess Sanyogita’s life come alive on the big screen.”

She added, “A debut like this, opposite one of the biggest superstars of the country like Akshay Kumar, is a lot of responsibility and I think I have given my everything to ensure that I play this role with utmost sincerity and dedication. So, the reaction of the audience that I’m getting today is humbling.”

Prithviraj has been directed by Dr. Chandraprakash Dwivedi, who is best known for directing the television epic Chanakya and the critically acclaimed film Pinjar. Prithviraj is set to release on June 3 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
