Alia Bhatt’s recent achievements have undoubtedly marked significant milestones in her career. As the first Indian global ambassador for Gucci, she stepped into a new realm of international recognition. Simultaneously, her venture into the world of crime series production with Poacher, an Amazon Prime series, promised to shed light on the grave issue of illegal ivory poaching in the country. However, the internet has swiftly turned its attention from applauding her achievements to criticizing what many perceive as hypocrisy. The catalyst for this online outrage was Alia Bhatt’s choice of accessory at a recent Gucci event – a calf leather bag.

The sentiment echoed by these comments suggests a growing disillusionment with celebrities who champion causes but seemingly fail to align their personal choices with the values they promote. In Alia Bhatt’s case, the backlash indicates a broader frustration with what some perceive as a disregard for the very issues she aims to address through her work, such as the urgent matter of wildlife conservation explored in the Poacher series. The internet remains divided, with some labelling Bhatt’s fashion choice as a display of hypocrisy, while others see it as a misguided prioritization of fashion over animal welfare.
