Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt, known for her strong on-screen presence, recently addressed the wave of strange rumors circulating about her on social media. In a direct response on Friday, Alia openly confronted the speculation about her appearance, including claims that she had undergone "botched Botox" and was “paralysed on one side.” She dismissed the comments as “beyond ridiculous” and highlighted the harmful impact of such unfounded narratives.
Alia’s reaction comes amid relentless social media gossip dissecting her appearance, from her facial expressions to the way she speaks. Sharing her frustration, Alia questioned the motives behind these rumors, sarcastically asking, “Are you kidding me?” She pointed out the baseless nature of the comments on her smile and mannerisms, noting that these accusations only serve to create unrealistic beauty standards that can deeply affect young, impressionable minds.
The actress also called attention to the unique challenges that women in the public eye face, with criticism often targeting their appearances, personal choices, and even life events like pregnancy. She expressed concern over how such judgments, often coming from other women, contribute to a culture where public scrutiny and criticism have become disturbingly common.
Read Alia Bhatt'S full statement as under:- .
"Absolutely NO JUDGEMENT towards anyone who chooses cosmetic corrections or surgery — your body, your choice. But wow, this is beyond ridiculous! To the random video flouting around literally claiming I've had Botox gone wrong (and to the numerous clickbait articles) - I have a 'crooked smile' and a 'weird way of speaking,' according to YOU. This is your hypercritical, microscopic judgment of a human face. And now you're confidently tossing around 'scientific' explanations, claiming I'm paralysed on one side? Are you kidding me?
These are SERIOUS claims being casually thrown out there with zero proof, no confirmation, and absolutely nothing to back it up. What's worse, you're influencing young, impressionable minds who might actually believe this garbage. Why are you saying this? For clickbait? Attention? Because none of it makes sense.
Let's take a minute to address the absurd lens through which women are judged and objectified on the internet—our faces, bodies, personal lives. even our bumps (!!!) are up for critique. We should be celebrating individuality. not tearing it apart under o microscope. These types of judgments perpetuate unrealistic standards, making people feel like they're never 'enough.' It's damaging, and it's exhausting.
And the saddest part? A lot of this judgment comes from other women. Whatever happened to 'live and let live? To 'everyone has the right to their own choices'? Instead, we've become so accustomed to picking each other apart that it's almost normalized. Meanwhile just another day of even thorougher entertainment with scripts made up by the Internet."
Alia, usually known for handling trolls with grace, decided to stand up for herself this time, making it clear that she won’t let anyone else define her worth or choices. Despite her recent film Jigra not making a major splash at the box office, Alia remains focused, with an exciting slate of projects ahead. She’ll soon be starring in Alpha, the first female-led film in YRF’s spy universe, and Love and War, a collaboration with Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Here’s hoping her talent continues to shine beyond the online noise.
Alia Bhatt is desperate for a big hit
