To put things nicely, when it was announced that AR Rahman will be composing the anthem for the Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu versions of Avengers: Endgame, we were skeptical. We knew even for a maestro like Rahman it would be a tall task to match up to the expectations of fans who have been ardent lovers of the Marvel universe for over a decade. Also his forays into Hollywood were never exactly epic to begin with. And now that the results are out, people aren’t happy.
This is definitely not one of Rahman’s best works. It’s actually very blah and the visuals of him walking around in the signature SRK pose (arm stretched out wide) is kinda ridiculous. But Twitter is being extra savage, as always, and have been trolling Rahman mercilessly since the video dropped.
After listening to this Thanos will wipeout the remaining half of the universe __#MarvelAnthem

Someone pls add a dislike button on Twitter. I survived no longer than the first 30 secs of the song. For someone who has been reading Marvel comics for almost 15 yrs, this is the opposite of special. @Russo_Brothers c’mon guys !!! This is a world cup anthem, not Avengers.

Some people want Marvel to remove the track altogether because they can’t deal with it
@arrahman Are you out of your mind? Why you ruined such an iconic movie? ____ Remove this track please @Marvel_India

@Russo_Brothers @Marvel Please remove the new shitty anthem by @arrahman. Don’t ruin Avengers for us we are already fed up from Bollywood. #AvengersEndgame #MarvelAnthem #MarvelIndia

Some are also dragging Student Of The Year 2 director Punit Malhotra because he directed the video
The #MarvelAnthem video for #AvengersEndgame – featuring AR Rahman – is directed by Punit Malhotra, who is currently directing #SOTY2 [starring Tiger Shroff].
