Alia Bhatt slams trolls claiming "Part Of Her Face Is Paralysed”

Actor Alia Bhatt on Friday, October 25, shared a long note, criticising those who have been body-shaming her for her 'crooked smile', 'weird way of speaking' and 'BOTOX gone wrong'. The actor reminded everyone to be sensitive about their comments on a woman's body, and be careful before spreading rumours about someone 'with zero proof, no confirmation'.

She shared a long note on her Instagram story and slammed trolls and critics for their misleading articles and videos suggesting that her expressions indicate Botox misuse. She expressed her frustration over unfounded claims about her having a "crooked smile" and a "weird way of speaking" and called out the casual nature of such serious accusations without any evidence. Alia also opened up about the harmful effects of these rumours, particularly on young, impressionable individuals who might take such "clickbait" seriously.

Alia Bhatt wrote, "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 floating around literally claiming I've had Botox gone wrong, 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."

She added, "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 a 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 (sic)," Alia Bhatt concluded.

Alia, who is married to actor Ranbir Kapoor, and is a mother to a girl, Raha, has often been trolled for the way she looks and talks. This is not the first time she has tried to school those making inappropriate comments about her appearance online. The actor is also being heavily criticised for her performance in her latest film, Jigra, which didn't impress the audience at the box office.
