Alaya F on being trolled for getting lip injections: I didn’t do anything

Alaya F made her Bollywood debut with this year’s release Jawaani Jaaneman and impressed one and all with her performance in the film. Well, Alaya is also very active on social media and we all know that celebs have to face a lot of trolls on social media platforms.

Recently, while talking on the show Starry Nights Gen Y, Alaya spoke about being trolled for getting lip injections. She said, “I have been getting these comments where people are like, ‘Oh, why did she get lip injections? She was beautiful before!’ I didn’t do anything! Right now, this is the most common one that I am getting and I don’t know why people think I got something done.”


When asked her, if trolls affect her, the actress said, “Little bit, yeah, because it’s also my first time doing this. It is always on my mind, which is why I actually say ‘um’ a lot. I was reading comments on YouTube and I saw people were like, ‘Why does she say um so much?’ I was like, ‘Because I am really thinking about what I am saying. I don’t want to say something stupid and then get trolled heavily for it.’ I would rather say um than something very stupid.”

Well, Alaya is yet to announce her second film, but there were reports that she would star in Student Of The Year 3. It was also said that she was being considered for Stree Rog Vibhaag opposite Ayushmann Khurrana, but the makers opted to cast Mrunal Thakur. However, there’s no official confirmation about the same.

After such an impressive debut, we are sure Alaya will wisely choose her next project which would give her a scope to perform and showcase her acting talent.

Co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters had already said the company would restart share buybacks once the deal was off.

Netflix shares have had a rough ride. They hit an all-time high of $134.12 in June 2025, then fell more than 40 per cent when the Warner Bros deal was announced.
