Alia Bhatt and other actresses react to trolls shaming pregnant Deepika Padukone
Bollywood stands united against trolling. From Alia Bhatt to Sonakshi Sinha, from Neha Dhupia to Bhumi Pednekar, from Nimrit Kaur to Shibani Akhtar, a lot of celebrities liked a post by journalist Faye D'Souza who defended Deepika against the pregnancy trolls, and thus, they showed their support towards her.
In her post, Faye wrote, "Dear social media, Deepika Padukone stepped out to do her democratic duty and vote. She did not ask for your feedback on her body or her pregnancy. You have no right to comment on any aspect of her life. Stop it. Behave."

From calling her walk funny to saying that the bump looks fake, people were mean to Deepika Padukone. For instance, one of the comments on her video read, "Dusre country ke log pregnancy mei normal chalte hai." Another one said, "Is she really pregnant, the bump looks fake." A third user said, "Why is she walking like Amitabh Bachchan?"

For the unversed, Deepika Padukone is in her second trimester and is all set to welcome her first baby with Ranveer Singh in September 2024. Ever since the Padmaavat actress announced her pregnancy, she has become a target of trolls. Earlier, people doubted if she is really pregnant as they couldn't spot a bump. Some even declared she is becoming a mother via surrogacy. Now that they spotted her bump, they think it's fake. Can we leave a pregnant woman alone and stop passing insensitive comments?
