In a recent social media outburst, actress Alia Bhatt addressed the rampant speculation surrounding her appearance, specifically accusations suggesting that she has undergone botched cosmetic procedures. The star took to her Instagram stories to express her frustration over misleading claims that she has facial paralysis due to Botox.
Alia’s post targeted trolls and critics who have circulated videos and articles claiming that her smile appears “crooked” and her speech “weird.” She emphasized the serious nature of these allegations, which she deemed to be baseless and harmful. “And now you’re confidently tossing around ‘scientific’ explanations, claiming I’m paralysed on one side? Are you kidding me?” she wrote, highlighting the absurdity of such claims being made without any evidence.
Alia continued, “Absolutely NO JUDGEMENT towards anyone who chooses cosmetic corrections or surgery—your body, your choice. But wow, this is beyond ridiculous! This hypercritical judgment of a human face is appalling.” She pointed out the potential harm these rumors can inflict, especially on young and impressionable audiences who might believe this sensationalized content.
The actress called for a shift in how women are perceived and treated in the media. “Why are you saying this? For clickbait? Attention? Because none of it makes sense,” she asserted, criticizing the unrealistic standards women face. She lamented, “A lot of this judgment comes from other women. Whatever happened to ‘live and let live’?”
Alia concluded her statement by urging for celebration of individuality rather than objectification. On the professional front, Alia Bhatt was recently seen in Jigra, and she has upcoming projects including Alpha and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War, where she stars alongside her husband, Ranbir Kapoor, and Vicky Kaushal.
