Alia Bhatt attended the Met Gala 2023 in a stunningly exquisite white gown from Indian fashion designer Prabal Gurung.

However, Alia Bhatt stopped and posed for the cameras before Prabal assisting her with her dress and she walked off. Reacting to the video, a user wrote in the comments, “They are taking revenge for jhandeya and tommy.” “Ngl if I was mistaken for Aishwarya, I’d be crying of joy. But if I were Aishwarya, I’d be offended,” added another one. Someone also commented, “Paps are same everywhere.”
A portion of the public was reminded by the occurrence of the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre gala where Indian paparazzi called Hollywood celebrities by the wrong names. Similar videos had gained popularity. While some referred to Tom Holland as "Makdi Man," asking him, "How will you become Spider-Man," others greeted Zendaya as "Jhandeyaa," and then said ‘Jijaji sharma gaye (brother-in-law is shy)’ to Priyanka Chopra’s husband Nick Jonas.
The Met Gala is an annual event held on the first Monday of May and attended by celebrities from the worlds of fashion and show business. The event presented by the Metropolitan Museum of Art was curated by Anna Wintour, a former editor of Vogue.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Alia has an exciting year ahead with the release of Netflix's 'Heart of Stone' with Gal Gadot, Jamie Dornan and 'Rocky Aur Rani ki Prem Kahaani' with Ranveer Singh which has been directed by Karan Johar. Alia Bhatt also has ‘Jee Le Zaraa’ with Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra which is being helmed by Farhan Akhtar.
