Gauri Khan has found herself in the spotlight after unknowingly becoming part of an Instagram poll. The poll in question called out Bollywood for allegedly reducing actress Triptii Dimri to little more than “disgusting” dance steps, outfits, and songs.” While Instagram doesn’t reveal whether Gauri voted “yes” or “no,” keen-eyed Reddit users quickly noticed her alleged participation in the poll and shared a screenshot of it.
The screenshot featured Gauri Khan’s name and display picture under the poll, suggesting she has voted. The vote, however, could not be seen at the time of publishing the article. Many are also assuming that Gauri may share the sentiment of being uncomfortable with Triptii being portrayed in such a way.
The caption of the video post read, “I am a big fan of her and I understand capitalising on opportunities is important but this is downright disrespectful in the way they are treating her in recent films, why is she agreeing to all of this? Have you heard this song of Tripti Dimri?” A post shared by TEA Music | The Entertainment Assignment Music (@teamusicdaily) Many have come to Gauri Khan’s defense, suggesting she may not have realised that Instagram reveals who participates in polls. Some even joked that someone else might have been fiddling with her phone. Others took a more serious tone, speculating that Gauri’s vote could mean that she agrees with the criticism that producers are not treating or presenting Triptii Dimri well .
