Alia Bhatt has become one of the top actresses in the Indian film industry, known for delivering strong performances in Bollywood and pan-India films. She is now poised to make her mark in Hollywood. Recently, her stunning appearance at Met Gala 2023 left everyone spellbound as she walked the red carpet in a beautiful princess-like outfit. However, some members of the New York paparazzi made a mistake and confused her with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

'Aishwarya this way'

Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt recently made her debut appearance at the Met Gala 2023, walking the red carpet in a stunning princess-like ensemble designed by Prabal Gurung. While posing for the paparazzi, some of the members called out to her as Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, mistaking her for the former Miss World. Aishwarya has been representing India on various international platforms for many years and is highly popular worldwide, and this gesture by the paparazzi proved her enduring popularity.

Netizens reacted to the incident on social media, with many pointing out that the paparazzi make similar mistakes everywhere. They recalled another recent incident when international celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Tom Holland, and Zendaya were seen attending the opening ceremony of the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai, and the paparazzi were heard mispronouncing their names.

Despite the paparazzi's mistake, Alia's appearance at the Met Gala was widely praised. She shared pictures of herself on Instagram, revealing that her gown featured 100,000 pearls and paid tribute to the late Karl Lagerfeld with her outfit. Several Bollywood celebrities, including Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor, praised her stunning look. Alia's solid performances in Bollywood and pan-India films have made her one of the most successful actresses in the Indian film industry, and she is now set to take on Hollywood.
