Several A-list Bollywood celebrities, including Alia, Priyanka, and others, have shown solidarity with Palestine by expressing support on Instagram. However, this sparked a ‘Boycott Bollywood’ trend on the X social media platform. Pooja Bhatt criticised this trend, which often targets the industry for speaking out collectively. She shared a screenshot of the boycott Bollywood hashtag on her official X handle, expressing frustration in her caption about the industry facing repercussions for speaking up for Palestine. Pooja later reposted the same caption, highlighting the gaslighting in the comments. Meanwhile, Madhuri Dixit gained attention for deleting a viral “All Eyes On Rafah” post from Instagram, leading fans to speculate that she removed it due to facing backlash.
