“I remember the first time I met Alia, she asked me, ‘Who’s Kishore Kumar?’ It’s just a circle of life; people are forgotten. It’s important we remember our roots,” he added. This statement invited significant trolling for the couple. While some criticized Alia Bhatt for being unaware, others called out Ranbir for disrespecting Alia in public. Then there is a section of people who believe that Ranbir has taken revenge on Alia for the ‘wipe it off’ comment
Alia’s ‘wipe it off’ comment
In another incident, Alia Bhatt’s comment subjected Ranbir Kapoor to severe trolling. During an Instagram video for Vogue, Alia Bhatt applied lipstick but almost wiped it off, saying, “Because one thing my husband… when he wasn’t my husband but was my boyfriend… he would be like, ‘Wipe that off, wipe that off,’ because he loves the natural colour of my lips.” This led to people labelling Ranbir Kapoor as a walking ‘red flag.’

Don’t raise your voice
Earlier, Alia and Ranbir faced a similar backlash when the actress revealed that he doesn’t like it when she raises her voice during a discussion. “I have to try very hard to control my anger because my husband does not like it when my voice goes above this decibel. He thinks it’s not fair, and it’s important to be kind even when you are unhappy,” she told Vice.
The pregnancy comment
It seems Ranbir Kapoor has been subjected to trolls more than Alia. During Alia Bhatt’s pregnancy, the couple was promoting Brahmastra. In a live session, Ranbir humorously called Alia ‘fat,’ which caused significant backlash on social media.
During the live session, when Ayan asked the couple why they weren’t promoting the film everywhere, Alia replied, “We will promote the film, and we will be everywhere, but if the question you are asking is why we are not phailod everywhere, right now our focus is…” Ranbir interrupted her, and while looking at Alia’s baby bump, quipped, “Well, I can say somebody has phailo-ed.” This comment was heavily criticized online.
‘Jai karna aata hai?’
Another incident occurred when Alia appeared on Koffee with Karan alongside Kareena Kapoor. She revealed that every time she performed a ritual with her husband Ranbir, he would jokingly ask her, “Jai karna aata hai?”
This was yet another comment by the couple that invited a barrage of trolls.
