Here’s how people reacted:
I like Alia but it’s getting an overdose of Alia now. These big production houses need to work with other actresses also.

She is talented but so does many others. It kinda feels like now as if no one exists except her. Sorry to say but in many of roles despite being tailor- made for her, she seems like fish out of water. She even didn’t able to pull dance sequence in rocky aur rani ki prem kahani

no superstar charm. no aura. no charisma. can’t elevate a poor script. zero per cent badass-que vibe going on for her. came off as bland as a stale white bread in that english film trailer. for how long are they planning to hit us with this mediocrity? https://t.co/ncgaQBLFB7
