Reddit users claim Alia Bhatt seems to have cropped Aishwarya Rai out of a photo in the Paris Fashion Week post. On Monday, Alia and Aishwarya walked down the runway for L'Oréal during Paris Fashion Week.
Alia Bhatt crops out Aishwarya Rai
After the event, Alia posted several pictures from the evening to her Instagram account. Among the people in the picture were Alia, Kendall Jenner, and Cara Delevingne; Aishwarya Rai was not there.
While Aishwarya was present in the original shot, a fan pointed out that Alia's post cropped her out.
“I mean whoever comes and goes Aish will always be THE Loreal girl. One of the most iconic collaborations and Aish easily the biggest contributor to the brand in terms of ambassadorship. Even they would have immeasurable gratitude towards her,” a fan wrote on Reddit.
Another said, “She wants to make it seem like she’s the only one representing the country.” A fan pointed out, “Loreal replaces them like nothing, since the last decade they had Deepika, Kat left to start Kay Beauty, Anushka, Sonam all been replaced. She just a placeholder meanwhile Aish has been there for 2 decades.” “I’ve never liked her and this solidifies my opinion on her. Ugh. What a child,” a comment read.
Alia Bhatt praises Aishwarya Rai
Speaking with Allure, Alia Bhatt recently praised Aishwarya Rai. Alia said, “When it comes to learning or being inspired by someone who has embodied dance in the most beautiful way on screen, I can’t help but think of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.”
“She was absolutely, and still is, just mesmerising. (She) also gave me a lot of direction and intellect. Whenever I had a song, I’d go to YouTube, type ‘Aishwarya Rai songs,’ and it’d come, and I’d be looking at all her songs just to catch the expressions and just the way she moves from one move to another, the ease, the way she just lets herself be, but at the same time, it’s just so perfect and so precise. And she’s beautiful to look at,” she added.
Aishwarya was spotted at the fashion event sporting a red dress with a balloon hem. Alia, on the other hand, chose a stylish metallic ensemble. While Neetu Kapoor shared she was in the audience supporting Alia, Aishwarya Bachchan's daughter Aaradhya Bachchan was acting as her cheerleader for the evening. Instead of spending time together on stage, Alia and Aishwarya were spotted hanging out in the makeup room.
