Boycotting alone will not serve the purpose this time, we must take legal action against @myntra now. Enough of this crap, every one of them is fcuking crossing their limits now. These b@st@rds can only stop with action, not by words!������ https://t.co/hKJEya9Fgf

After this 2016 fiasco, ScrollDroll issued an apology through a tweet, taking full responsibility for the graphic. The tweet also said that Myntra had nothing to do with the poster. 

The brand, too, had put out statements in 2016 to distance itself from the creative and threatening legal action against the publication for using its brand name.   The graphic from ScrollDroll was a part of a series titled 'Indian mythology meets today's digital technology', which saw characters from Hindu mythology using smartphone applications for their needs.  

In December 2020, Myntra was in hot water when an activist complained that the brand’s logo was reminiscent of a naked woman. Myntra had immediately made changes to its logo at the time.
