Designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee is facing unending trolls online after the luxury label shared images of his new line ‘Intimate Fine Jewellery’ collection.
Sabyasachi’s official Instagram feed shared a series of photos of models wearing the brand’s newly launched mangalsutras.
The Royal Bengal Mangalsutra, which is part of the designer’s intimate jewellery collection, is worn by heterosexual and same-sex couples in the promotional advertisement. The models are clad in intimate attire and wearing a mangalsutra in these photographs.

The ad campaign has now been labelled ‘obscene’ by a part of the internet. Several people turned to social media to express their displeasure with the advertisement, claiming that it is an attack on Hindu culture and damages religious emotions.

Outraging public decency is punishable #Sabyasachi @sabya_mukherjee
Hindu married women wear Mangal sutra and it is considered a sacred Hindu custom and ritual.
This post is hurting Hindu sentiments. @KapilMishra_IND @ShefVaidya

Only thing you can do about this ‘ad’ is to report it for ‘nudity and sexual activity’. The minute you make any comment about the model, Sabyasachi flashes the platinum victim card and cries ‘body shaming’ ‘racism’, ‘why Indians hate dusky skin’ etc etc. Do NOT fall in the trap! pic.twitter.com/wa77Lo9m6n
