Alia Bhatt’s Statement on the Viral Video
Taking to her instagram handle, alia wrote: “I understand that in a city like Mumbai, space is limited - sometimes the view from your window is another person's home. But that does not give anyone the right to film private residences and push those videos online. A video of our home - still under construction has been recorded and circulated by multiple publications, without our knowledge or consent.”She further emphasised: “Filming or photographing someone's personal space without permission is not ‘content’ - it's a violation. It should never be normalised.”
A Clear Invasion of Privacy
The Jigra actress stressed the seriousness of the matter, highlighting the importance of respecting personal boundaries.“Think about it: would you tolerate videos of the inside of your home being shared publicly, without you knowing? None of us would.”
Alia also made a humble request to the public: “So, here's a humble but firm request - if you come across such content online, please don't forward it or share it further.”
Message to media Outlets
In her note, alia also addressed media platforms that had published the video.“And to our friends in the media who have carried these images and videos: I urge you to take them down immediately. Thank you.”
