  • Snapdeal has resolved to drop Bollywood star Aamir Khan as its brand ambassador.

    Snapdeal sources revealed that Khan's contract that would end in February 2016 will not get renewed as the advertisement budget is being cut down.

    Advertising and marketing officials however, think that the move was connected to Khan's comments on India being intolerant.

    The ad-world has called Snapdeal's move 'harsh'.
