What Reddit Is Saying

This moment was caught on Reddit, sparking huge debate and different comments on the thread. One user commented, “Must’ve taken her husband’s name and kept Bhatt for her public-facing career since she is widely known by that surname,” and “Alia must have changed her surname legally to Alia Kapoor and is using Bhatt only for career purposes. Many women would want the same surname as their family. I’m actually surprised Alia didn’t change it professionally as well.”

Many users also argued that the hotel might’ve written it mistakenly, but to this, several users wrote, “How will a hotel in France know her husband’s surname? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Anyway, hotel booking is done according to your legal name on ID’s.” While many thought it was cute that she wanted the same surname as her daughter and husband, others debated the patriarchal norm.
