For a while now, videos talking about Alia Bhatt’s “Botox gone wrong” have been doing the rounds online. But today, the acclaimed actor has made it clear that she won’t tolerate baseless rumours. The Bollywood star took to Instagram to shut down the absurd speculation surrounding her appearance. In her story, Alia Bhatt said, “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?”

“Why are you saying this? For clickbait?”

In her story, Alia stated that she does not judge anyone who chooses to have corrections or surgery as it’s a personal choice.

She also highlighted how the internet feels entitled to scrutinise and criticise every inch of a woman’s appearance. “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,” Alia wrote.

She wrote that we should celebrate individuality rather than tear it apart under a microscope. Furthermore, she highlighted how damaging and unrealistic this kind of judgement can be. She said this perpetuates “unrealistic standards, making people feel like they’re never “enough.”

“Influencing young, impressionable minds”

Alia Bhatt also voiced concerns about the impact such rumours have on younger generations who might start believing this “garbage”. What seemingly stung even more for Alia was realising that much of this judgement comes from other women. She also reflected on how society has strayed far from the idea of “live and let live” and people have become so accustomed to picking each other apart that it’s practically normalised.

In the end, she said that it’s a day of entertainment through made-up scripts and wild imaginations of the Internet.

Instead of letting the rumours fester, Alia Bhatt set the record straight and clapped back making it clear that she won’t stand for the baseless scrutiny of her appearance. And her fans? They’re standing right behind her.
