Alia is so funny and typical 🤣🤣 - Page 9

Good find , especially as Vicky had done Sanju with Ranbir before and got very good critics (even some hinting at overshadowing Ranbir in the acting)... when I read about the projected new collaboration (now Love & War with Alia included and Vicky being the love interest), I had some 'weird ideas'...

I don’t think it’s about Yami at all. Her career is filled with great movies and equally mid movies ( but she is always good in them) , which is representative of the fact that the industry doesn’t present equal chances for all. And let’s not forget or pretend Yami herself is fairly well to do, her father is an executive of PTV and does produce Punjabi films.

this really is about Karan and Alia panicking that for the first time, in a long time, attention isn’t on them, and it’s going to the people who have done good work and are so-called underdog in that they’re underexposed but delivering good work consistently. They are used to setting the narrative, now probably feel a bit irrelevant to the conversation.

Alia should have praised Haq sooner and made the effort to watch in movies since Emran Hashmi is her family lol. Usko chodke, she is running after Yami. And she was caught leaving comments under other people’s movies ( I forget which one…) A month after Dhurandhar, she praises the movie via her production company /brand insta, leaves off her ex co star and makes it a point to personally call out Yami for Haq. It screams personal agenda cuz Alia wants the best of both worlds - she wants mass success and wants to solo headline movies and call herself lady Bachchan

Kjo the posts about Haq on the same day, calling her out twice, when the movie was also headlined by Emran, who he has worked with and is Alia’s extended family. He just wants to insert himself, wherever cuz they want to be talked about whether Dharma is making Param Sundari or distributing Homebound.

man, the way these two are behaving is just sloppy😂😂😂 and that’s why it’s important to watch movies in theatres to know what audience wants…and stay relevant.

Although I had watched Yami in some other movies, I never chose to watch a movie because of her and as for Haq, I just was confident that she would give a good performance. At that time (Nov. 2025) I didn't even know that she was married to Aditya Dhar

Contrary to Yami, I appreciated Tripti from her Sajid Ali film on and deliberately chose to watch her next two ventures with Anushka's production house... I got a bit taken aback about her Animal-choice (but I'm sure it was because of working with Ranbir)...and then I saw what her collaboration with Dharma did to her... and now she works with Vanga again... *sigh*

I agree with you... it seems like both (Karan and Alia) have panicked about losing relevance... still interesting that Yami decided to follow Alia's Instagram account... it seems like Yami, too, takes a little bath of recognition (regardless how much being Aditiya's wife plays a role).

Kiara's praise came some days earlier than Alia's and Karan's and did n o t give me the same slightly negative vibe of what I felt when reading Alia's and Karan's messages. Bias? I don't think so.

Karan Johar is also following Alia like a parrot

I am a Yami fan.

I didn't know who Tripti was until I would read online about how people were upset she lost Filmfare OTT for Qala to Alia for Darlings. Then she broke out from Animal. I never saw her in a movie until BB3. Now I've seen all her movies, save for Animal. I know Parineeti, who I think was supposed to do the Rashmika role in Animal, also had wanted to work with Ranbir for a very long time. I'm curious if Tripti did the movie just for Ranbir or just for Vanga (knowing his movies are successes) or for both reasons. Dharma didn't really help her although Dhadak 2 was one of her best roles. Have not seen the original movie it's a remake of but I heard the female role in the original was very small so Dharma increased it for Tripti. That film served her well in terms of acting but sadly didn't advance her career since nobody saw it. I still find it funny that Dhadak 2 actually has a happier ending than the first Dhadak, but the subject matter and lead-up to the ending is so depressing that it's considered a less feel-good movie than the first Dhadak.

Allegedly the female role is better in Spirit. It must have been if Deepika was in consideration for the role, but I was disappointed that Deepika was willing to even look at the movie or work with Vanga. It does show me that in the movie industry, there's rarely anything as principles. People only care about what sells and they'll sell their morals to sign onto a film that they know will work, regardless of content. Hence, Ranveer working on Dhurandhar to revive his flagging career or Deepika seriously considering working with Vanga in Spirit, despite it going against her entire fandom and feminist values (I will give her credit that when she was supposed to work with some accused director of sexual harassment, her fans got upset and she did pull out of working with that director). Alia chumming up to the Dhars is another example. Ironically enough, Ranbir is the most unscathed here of this foursome since his public persona has always been rather toxic, that he's never been associated with progressive films or themes for him to betray his persona or fans.

In contrast, I'm glad the Khans have never sold themselves out or their principles. I remember some rumors about SRK working with Vanga, which I never believed. Hrithik also falls in this camp, always making very progressive films, although Fighter might be an exception. I do remember he clarified that he didn't necessarily agree with the film's climax or the dialogue he was given but he felt as an actor, it was his duty to recite the script lines even if he doesn't agree with it. Which might be a copout. But 90s actors seem better about sticking to their principles and values and not changing public personas just to cash in on whatever genre has taken vogue. It's the newer ones who seem more willing to go wherever the wind is blowing. Anushka being another example considering she starred in PK but seems to not have understood the film's message based on her personal life. Biggest hypocrite in the industry is definitely PC though, since she changes her persona and views based on what country she's in or who her direct audience is.

This is also why I value Kartik and how even with TMMTMTTM failing, he did not disown the movie. He praised it and how he was proud to work on such a progressive film that doesn't rely on toxic masculinity, violence, and an overdose of testosterone like Dhurandhar. He hasn't made such types of movies and I hope he never will, since he has a huge female fandom. Don 3 role, rumored for him, would be perfect since it's sleek rather than aggressively violent. Similarly, I remember in a recent interview with Rani, she also said something about how she values all her movies. She doesn't have a least favorite role because all the roles she's ever played will mean something to at least someone out there so she's not going to hurt her fans' sentiments by dissing one part or another. It showed me a consideration for her fans and explains the consistency in her work.

I wish more current actors realized that their filmographies are more than just box office records but also curate a specific legacy for what they believe in and what they represent. Kartik, as well as Taapsee, out of the current crop of actors, seem to be one of the few who understand this. I haven't seen this with anyone else, whether that's Ranbir, Alia, Vicky, Tripti, or now even Deepika and Ranveer. Maybe Kriti is the only other one who seems intent on only doing film roles she's proud of and that have good messages that don't spread negativity. I know she's spoken about how there are certain roles she wouldn't want to do, let alone glorify. I hope she really means that.

Ananya is such a snake. Her sister was liking anti-Kartik reels as well. There was a viral incident from OTT Filmfare where Alia apparently snubbed Ananya and didn't greet her, only spoke to Vicky, so wonder if this is a reaction to that. But it shows how fake these nepos are that the likes of Ananya claim Alia is her idol but then likes negative content about her. I remember hearing that Janhvi was also caught liking anti-Madhuri posts. Maybe that was inspired by how Madhuri and Sridevi had a very cold rivalry in the 90s and there was a video of Madhuri from that time basically dissing Sridevi.

Somewhat off-topic, but on Instagram, Ameesha Patel reposted a video making fun of Varun in Border 2. Knowing how close she is with Sunny, it doesn't show much faith in the film if she's not just liking but actually reposting content trashing Varun lol. Always interesting when veteran actors don't even bother to hide their disdain for the new crop.

Back to Ananya, betting when her PR finds out this has been spotted, she'll unlike the tweet.

Not a nice move as a colleague when one knows that those likes not only are visible but also get published/viral... even though Ananya may think about Alia as being opportunistic, why show it openly... she herself also has flaws, right?
