However, shortly after the pictures were posted, social media users swiftly pointed out the evident editing, accusing the actress of airbrushing and distorting her appearance to project a younger image. Some even remarked that she resembled a teenage girl in the heavily edited images.

Critics pointed out the contradiction between Kapoor Khan's edited photos and her message about embracing natural aging. One user said she looked more like her own daughter, while another criticised the low quality of the editing.

One Reddit user wrote, "Honestly, I saw this post and immediately unfollowed her. I really liked her wholesome posts, but of late, the photo shopping is ridiculous and sets really unrealistic standards for us."

Another said, "Is she getting insecure."

One, while defending the actress, wrote, "I feel like it might be brand-related." and that "when she posts her own pics they¡¯re not photoshopped like this."
