The first poster of upcoming Bollywood multi-starrer Thugs of Hindostan featuring Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Sheikh, just dropped and people have mixed opinions on it.
While the main cast of the film is ecstatic, audiences feel that the film bears a strong resemblance to the Johnny Depp-Penelope Cruz starrer Pirates of the Caribbean.
Aamir shared the film’s poster writing, “To see myself on a poster with Mr Bachchan is a dream come true for me. I still cant believe it.”

Audiences began to troll the poster.
This really is just going to be ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ with item songs. https://t.co/N1Pq77EnJV

Is #ThugsOfHindostan the official remake of #PiratesOfCarribean
So much similarity !! Can it be a conincidence.
Anyways I hope this movie does not have a usual Bollywood plot and pace. It needs to be a pacy thriller. pic.twitter.com/SIsPG0Z3M1— Abhishek Parihar (@BlogDrive) September 25, 2018

Aamir is known to make original films so let’s hope this is just hype and the film is not similar to the blockbuster Hollywood franchise.
Thugs of Hindostan is scheduled to release on November 8. The film’s trailer will release on September 27.
