28th June 2023, Mumbai: Aly Goni was brought into the controversy after Jasmin Bhasin uploaded photos of herself at the Abu Dhabi Mosque while wearing a burqa. They said that he was the one who finally forced her to wear the burqa. The actress received a tonne of backlash for wearing an abaya. Jasmin has now responded angrily to the teasing for donning a burqa within a mosque in her encounter. Jasmin responds to criticism for posting photos of herself wearing a burqa by saying, “I visited the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, where it’s a requirement that you cover oneself in a particular dress, so that’s what I did. Because it was a sacred place and my parents have taught me since childhood to do so, I showed respect for the place and complied with all of its laws and rules.”

Jasmin brought up the legitimate issue of getting trolled for everything and everything, and that is the price they pay for being a public warrior. She is presently on vacation with boyfriend Aly Goni as she celebrates her 33rd birthday with him. Jasmin continued, “People aren’t trolling just because I’m wearing a burqa; if I post pictures of myself tomorrow in swimwear on a beach vacation, I’ll get trolled for that too, so I don’t give a damn.”

“I consciously decide to disregard all the bad. Things grow when you give them more vitality and significance. I don’t give it much importance since I don’t want it in my life.” Since Jasmin and Aly had been dating for a while, they talked openly about their relationship within the Bigg Boss House.

Bhasin, who made her acting debut in 2011 in the Tamil film Vaanam, has only appeared in a tiny number of regional productions despite being a busy small-screen actor. “I haven’t done too many films just because I want to make sure that whenever I do one, it should be a very strong script, and a character that leaves a mark,” the Honeymoon (2022) actor explains. “Acting is my love and everything, and we put in a lot of effort to pursue it. Simply waiting for my dreams to come true, I’m being patient. I’m awaiting the ideal Bollywood project and the ideal collaborators.”
