Nagini Shree |Mar 30, 2019

A picture from Alia Bhatt's recent photo shoot was criticized for plagiarising Dua Lipa’s ad shoot. The heroine shut them down like a boss.

Kalank lead actors Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan recently appeared on the latest cover magazine of Filmfare, which already grabbed eyeballs. Though in monochrome, the picture has set the Internet on fire as Alia and Varun’s chemistry in it looks too hot to handle.

However, soon after, the magazine was called out and received flak for copying the photoshoot’s idea from singer Dua Lipa’s ad shoot with Pepe Jeans. The actress wasn't going to let this one go down easy and clarified to shut down trolls.

The Instagram account called Diet Sabya trolled Alia Bhatt and accused her of copying a cover featured famous singer Dua Lipa:

Diet Sabya is an anonymous Instagram account that names and shames designers indulging in the sneaky game of copying others' work. Their funda is simple - you copy, you get called out in public.

Within no time, Alia Bhatt took to Instagram to confirm that she shot for the magazine before Dua Lipa shared the pictures online. Check the posts out.

While Dua Lipa's cover shoot was shared on February 26, Alia claimed that she did the shoot earlier in February. What do you think about this whole fiasco?
