The Indian film industry is huge. On average, almost 100 films are made every year, and the fans follow their celebrities religiously. And if recent history has taught us anything, it’s that fans have the power to do anything. Now just imagine when there are 1.40 billion of them. Well, that’s what happened with The Gray Man star Dhanush.
Fans of Dhanush forced a complete The Gray Man poster release
The Russo Brothers, who directed The Gray Man, published character posters for Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Ana de Armas on Instagram before the trailer’s release.
However, the film also features Indian actor Dhanush in a minor part, and his absence from the list upset his fans. As a result, they flooded the post with comments, requesting that the directors also provide a Dhanush poster.
The Russos quickly followed up with a separate post, showcasing solely Dhanush. The caption stated, “Who’s ready for @dhanushkraja? #TheGrayMan.”
The celebrities were shown against a dark blue background with a bright red glow flashing on their faces on all four posters. Ryan, Chris, Ana, and Dhanush are presented as the Uncatchable, Unstoppable, Untraceable and Lethal Force, respectively.
On IMDb’s Instagram page, something similar happened. The page previously only provided posters for Ryan, Chris, and Ana, but then removed the post and replaced it with a new one that includes Dhanush as well.
Indian fans of Dhanush are certainly eager to watch the actor in the film. It also marks his first Hollywood movie, making the experience even greater for his fans.
How did the people react?
Obviously, his immense fan base was more than delighted to see the superstar receive his won poster. Some commented on the Instagram post saying, “You made a mistake not showing him in earlier post,” “On public demand right.”
