Another user criticises the portrayal of empowerment through activities like drinking, smoking, and one-night stands, considering them inadequate representations. Additionally, she shows her disappointment among Gill's fans, claiming that the actor seems to have been used primarily for promotional purposes.
#ThankYouForComing is a senseless cinema with a lopsided view of feminism & women's empowerment. Drinking, smoking, & having one-night stands is not empowerment. Also, absolutely nothing for #ShehnaazGill fans, she seems to be used for promotions. #ThankYouForComingReview
