‘While we were dating, Ranbir told me not to wear lipstick’: Alia’s Vogue interview sparks outrage

Alia Bhatt’s recent Beauty Secrets interview with Vogue has gone viral, but for all the wrong reasons. A clip from the interview has sparked backlash, in which the actress reveals that while she was dating her now husband, Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor, he didn’t allow her to wear lipstick when they were going out.

“When we used to go out at night he would say ‘Wipe that off'”, the actress commented.

It should be good to mention here that there is a 10-year age gap between the two. Alia was 17 years old when she began working on ‘Student Of The Year’ when Ranbir dropped by on set, and joked to director Karan Johar about whether he should marry her.

Since the clip went viral on Twitter, users have expressed outrage on Ranbir’s relationship with his wife. A few months ago, the actor was slammed for body shaming Alia during a livestream, while she was pregnant with their daughter Raha. Then, he was criticized for saying that he hopes Raha doesn’t have Alia’s personality, because “she talks quite loud and is vivacious.”

Many users pointed out how Ranbir Kapoor has qualities similar to a toxic boyfriend, as one user put it:

“Ranbir is one of those toxic men who finally settle with much younger women they can easily manipulate. she might be happy doing whatever he wants but it’s still a sad situation esp with her background.”

Men like Ranbir Kapoor tend to choose partners whom are accommodating and they can exert control over. His chocolate boy or whatever image leads to people overlooking his huge red flags. https://t.co/5yUQdZRwb6
