YouTuber slams Alia, Samantha for endorsing junk food, unhealthy habits
Bollywood actors Alia Bhatt and Samantha Ruth Prabhu are facing backlash for endorsing unhealthy food products. The criticism comes after fitness influencer and YouTuber Nitin Maurya released a video highlighting the hypocrisy of several celebrities who promote health-conscious lifestyles but appear in commercials for junk food. He also mentioned other actors like Sara Ali Khan, Hrithik Roshan, and Ananya Panday, while also taking a dig at Shah Rukh Khan and Ajay Devgn, among others.
Video shows celebrities' contradictory statements, actions
In the video, Ruth Prabhu is seen discussing the significance of steering clear of sugar and chocolates in a podcast, but is later seen promoting a chocolate brand. The video also includes a clip of Bhatt from The Kapil Sharma Show, where she declined a coffee with sugar citing health reasons. However, she is later seen promoting a chocolate brand.
Criticism of Ali Khan and Panday
Maurya also questioned Ali Khan and Panday for different reasons. Maurya also included a clip of Ali Khan enjoying pizza and a soft drink in an advertisement, but claiming to avoid junk food in an interview. Panday, on the other hand, is seen asserting that she doesn't know how to light a cigarette but is later spotted smoking in a viral clip.
'Do not take life, nutrition advice from actors'
Maurya said, "Do not take life and nutrition advice from actors. They are not the person who you should look up to. They are just as flawed as you or me. With no morals and values." "They will not eat tobacco but will ask you to eat it. They will not consume poison but will ask you to do it. They do not risk their money into betting but will ask you to do it. Did you get it?"
