Bollywood actor Alia Bhatt has recently opened up about facing casual sexism. The Raazi actor, who is playing the role of a domestic abuse survivor in her upcoming maiden production venture, Darlings, talked about the casual sexism she faced back in the entertainment industry on different occasions.

Speaking to a news portal, Alia said she has faced a lot of casual sexism from time to time, but many of the times she would not notice it. She went on to say that she is much more conscious of these remarks now and believes she was the target of extreme misogyny at that time, which is why she is so much more sensitive now.

Taking a dig at people who often point out women for being aggressive or acting in a specific way because they are experiencing PMS, she stated that such remarks are illogical, absurd, and completely sexist.

She also talked about how casually people pass comments about hiding the bra and how you should not keep them on the bed. She said she finds it weird to hide it. It’s also a piece of clothing. She added that when others flash their underwear, women don’t say anything.

Meanwhile, Alia is all set to be seen in a dark comedy film Darlings which is slated to release in theatres on August 5, 2022. The story revolves around a wife who kidnaps her own husband in retaliation for all the abuse she has endured at his hands over the years. Shefali Shah and Vijay Verma are also seen in pivotal roles in the film.

Apart from Darlings, she will also be seen in Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani opposite Ranveer Singh and in Brahmastra alongside Ranbir Kapoor.

On the personal front, she is expecting her first child with her husband Ranbir Kapoor.
