Ever since Alia Bhatt made an appearance at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival, the actor has been facing heavy trolling online, with a section of social media claiming she was seemingly “ignored” by international paparazzi during one of her outings. Amid the chatter, Sonu Sood appeared to defend Alia with a note, saying not every achievement needs validation from cameras, headlines, or strangers to matter.
Sonu Sood supports Alia
On Friday, Sonu took to social media to put out a note to support Alia. He posted the note on X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
“When one of our own walks onto an international stage, it should be a moment of pride, not a reason to search for flaws,” Sonu wrote without mentioning the name of Alia.
The actor continued, “Not every achievement needs validation from cameras, headlines, or strangers to be meaningful. The courage to stand there, represent your craft, and carry your journey with grace is an achievement in itself.”
