I have not seen people dislike Alia in real life. In real life people rather like her a lot among new actresses.
I do not understand her appeal though. I find her overrated in every department.
At the most reason for dislike could be due to lack of looks and those silly answers in interviews and getting too much success, hype, chances, awards at a too young age. She got too much too soon, a lot of which, seems undeserved or handed on a platter due to nepotism and favours she gets due to K Jo. Rest of the hate she gets online is due to her being a Bhatt. Mahesh, Pooja, Soni have have very strong political opinions and are vocal about it online. They are pro INC and criticise present BJP govt. This is why IT cell hate for Bhatt family gets transferred to Alia who gets brickbats whether she makes any political comments or not.
