Kajol has once again shown that grace and confidence are the best answers to online trolling. The Bollywood star recently went viral when she appeared at an event in a black bodycon dress. While the outfit was chic and elegant, it drew unnecessary attention from some netizens, who began speculating about her body.
Instead of engaging with trolls, the ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’ actress later shared a series of stunning pictures of herself in the same dress on Instagram. Her posts instantly won hearts and turned the spotlight back where it belonged, on her timeless charm.
Rather than directly addressing the trolls, the ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ actress chose a different path. Soon after the chatter online, she uploaded a series of gorgeous stills from the same event on her Instagram handle.
The pictures showed the ‘Fanaa’ actress striking confident poses in the dress. She captioned the post, “Fairy tales in the not so distant future :- Smartphone smartphone on a stick who has the fairest profile pic?”
One fan gushed, “The phone replied, ‘it is Kajol with 98% engagement, most gorgeous smile and flawless skin.’” Another added, “Damn gurl .. Still breaking hearts and algorithms at 51." One more said, “Beauty queen of cuteness”.
Kajol’s black bodycon dress at event turns heads
Kajol was attending an event when a paparazzo account posted a video of her online. She wore this exact striking black bodycon dress with metallic detailing. Keeping her look minimal and chic, Kajol opted for subtle make-up, soft waves in her hair, and her signature bright smile. But despite her radiant appearance, much of the attention online shifted from her style to her body.
Kajol’s elegant style overshadowed by online speculation
The video of Kajol quickly spread on social media. Instead of celebrating her fashion choice, several users filled the comments with speculation about whether she was pregnant.
Mini Mathur slams zoomed video of Kajol
What sparked even more criticism was the way the video was shot. The paparazzo had zoomed in on Kajol’s body, something that many felt was unnecessary and invasive. Actress and TV host Mini Mathur did not hold back from voicing her displeasure.
She took to the comments section and wrote, “How dare you zoom in on her body???? She doesn’t owe you guys eternal youth. You don’t get to decide how she should look."
Kajol on the work front
Even as social media buzzed about her look, Kajol has been busy on the professional front. She was last seen in ‘Sarzameen’, a film that also featured
Ibrahim Ali Khan and
Prithviraj Sukumaran in key roles. Next, she is set to return as Noyonika Sengupta in the second season of ‘The Trial: Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha’.
