Alia Bhatt's mother and actress Soni Razdan has given her piece of mind to young actress Zaira Wasim after she suddenly announced quitting Bollywood on social media.


Recently, Zaira posted a series of pictures with her statement revealing her decision to quit the Hindi film industry and citing religious reasons for the same. In a long post, Zaira said that she wasn’t truly happy with her ‘line of work’ and since it threatened her religious beliefs therefore, she has decided to quit Bollywood.


Zaira made her big Bollywood debut with Aamir Khan’s Dangal wherein she played the role of young Geeta Phogat. Post the super success of the film, she was next seen in Secret Superstar and for this film too, she received accolades. Also, she recently wrapped up the shooting of her next film, The Sky Is Pink co-starring Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar is all set to release. But, reportedly, she has opted out of the promotions of the film.


Soon after Zaira's post went viral, many B-Town celebrities shared their opinion about her decision. The recent one being, Alia Bhatt's mom Soni Razdan.


Reacting to the same, Soni says that one should do what he/she likes because that is what God wants you to do. In a long message, Soni wrote, “I just hope she grows up to realise that if you love what you do, that is exactly what God would want for you. And acting and the creative arts are in no way something dreadful or self indulgent. To make people feel, cry, laugh, think & connect is in itself a noble thing to do.”

In addition to this, Soni also commented that she still "respects" Zaira's decision as she wrote, "Having said this I would certainly respect her decision as this business can be hugely overwhelming and often quite frightening. @ZairaWasimmm you’re so young and you may feel differently in 4 years time.. we will welcome you back with open arms sweetheart if that is so.” After her note announcing her decision to quit Bollywood, Zaira again posted a message on Twitter wherein she confirmed that her account isn’t hacked and that she is the one who confirmed her exit from Bollywood. Well, all we can say is that Bollywood will miss you, young girl!"

Those criticizing Zaira's choice are the same people who keep promoting feminism and other forms of neo liberal nonsense. If Zaira had chosen to do a nude photoshoot or a bold sex scene, they would all be praising her and calling it women empowerment. Just because she chose God first, their asses are on fire. I enjoy seeing these triggered liberals. All the best to Zaira.
