“She looks different,” one user said.

Getting work done on the face and body is not new in Bollywood. Many actors including Samantha, Sonam Kapoor, and most recently Alia Bhatt have been alleged to have undergone knife to change their standards, setting unnatural beauty standards for commoners.

An Empowered Audience

On the brighter side, the audience has become more vocal on issues about setting unhealthy trends even if it means calling out their favourite stars.

 Katrina Kaif’s latest product launch may have garnered attention for all the wrong reasons, with many focusing on her appearance rather than the product itself. The Incident serves as a reminder of the scrutiny and pressure faced by celebrities, especially in the realm of beauty and appearances.

Whether Katrina’s alleged procedures are true or not, the incident sparks an important conversation about self-acceptance and staying true to one’s essence, as emphasized by her brand’s tagline, “It’s Kay To Be You.”
