Mangalsutra looks like this

It's not a random piece of fashion jewellery, it indicates the love and commitment the husband and wife have towards each other. pic.twitter.com/HB3r4Aa4A4

Boycotting won't help. Infact, it is way too expensive & not many can afford it.

He shd be slapped with multiple cases for hurting Religious Sentiments.

His life can be made a miserable Hell.

Stop showing us how a woman looks before and after SEX & Kamasutra both are different
Mangalsutra is related to religious things & worn only after marriage
While Kamasutra is just about Sex and lust a being has pic.twitter.com/JRPQGIwRs1

Mangalsutra is a pious thread. It signifies the sacred union of marriage. U can do advertisement in this way,it looks really beautiful (pic-1) not in this vulgar way (pic-2). Why intolerant ones are jumping for boycott? No need tho. Dlt that ad and apologize. Enough! pic.twitter.com/m6akHGarNO
