Alia Bhatt Criticizes Media Houses for Patriarchal Reporting Of Her Pregnancy

Alia Bhatt recently announced her pregnancy via an adorable post on Instagram. She was soon showered with congratulatory messages and heartwarming wishes from friends, family and fans on the post.

However, as we live in a patriarchal society, several media houses covered her pregnancy news in a patriarchal way.

Alia Bhatt Reacts

A certain report of a media house claimed that Alia’s husband, Ranbir Kapoor would travel to the UK to bring his wife back home. Additionally, the story cited another media report saying that Alia Bhatt had planned her pregnancy in such a way that her film commitments are not affected.

Reacting to this, Alia Bhatt shared on her Instagram story “Meanwhile we still live in some people's heads we still love in some patriarchal world...fyi. Nothing has gotten delayed!!!! No one needs to PICK anyone up, I am a woman not a parcel!!!! I do not need to REST at all but good to know you'll have a doctor’s certification as well. This is 2022. Can we please get out of this archaic way of thinking! Now if you would excuse me...my shot is ready.”
