While talking to indianexpress.com, Ayesha didn't confirm a cosmetic surgery but she seems to be unaffected by consistent trolling. She said, "A handful of vicious people and gossip columns have decided to totally morph and distort my pics but the truth will prevail as I’m on social media every day and shooting / out and about people can see what I really look like and luckily I have amazing followers on Instagram who I interact with daily, so they have not believed these lies and supported me all the way."
