"What's seeming increasingly idiotic: Cancel culture. People deciding for other people what is wrong with their lives and then everyone jumping into some discussion or the other about things that actually have nothing to do with them! Funny times we live in!," she wrote. 

Ranbir Kapoor faces social media wrath

Alia Bhatt recently appeared in a promotional video in which she showed her fans a hack to apply lipstick. In the video, the actress revealed she always ends up wiping some of the lipstick off after application. She further stated that her husband Ranbir Kapoor likes the natural colour of her lips and always insists that she wipe her lipstick off.

This sparked an online debate about Ranbir's allegedly dominating nature, which was dubbed a "red flag". Alia has not addressed the controversy directly so far.
