Aaradhya Bachchan’s New Look At Ambani Bash Invites Derogatory Remarks; Netizens Demand Action
Aaradhya Bachchan, the 12-year-old daughter of Bollywood power couple Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, recently made headlines with her striking appearance at the pre-wedding festivities of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. The young starlet’s transformation caught the internet’s attention, but it also ignited a heated debate about the sexualization of minors.
Aaradhya’s New Look
Aaradhya donned an elegant silver-white lehenga for the grand occasion, a departure from her usual style. Notably, she ditched her signature bangs and opted for straight hair, accentuating her features.
The Bachchan family’s pictures from the event went viral, with fans marvelling at how Aaradhya seemed as tall as her father, Abhishek Bachchan, and strikingly resembled her mother, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
The Controversy
While many admired Aaradhya’s grace and poise, others crossed a line by making inappropriate comments about her appearance. Some went so far as to sexualize the young girl, objectifying her in a wholly unacceptable manner. Netizens reacted quickly, expressing outrage and concern over the harmful discourse surrounding a minor.
Demanding Legal Action
The online backlash intensified, with calls for accountability. People rightly pointed out that Aaradhya is just a child, and any form of sexualization or objectification is reprehensible. The Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, designed to safeguard minors from sexual exploitation, became a focal point. Netizens demanded that those responsible for the inappropriate comments be held accountable under this legal framework.
She is just a child. This post and all those who have replied in an absurd way need to be booked under POCSO Act.

Abhishek Bachchan’s Past Battle
This isn’t the first time the Bachchan family has faced such challenges. Abhishek Bachchan previously took legal action against fake videos that falsely claimed Aaradhya was suffering from a fatal illness. As the controversy rages, there are renewed calls for the family to take decisive steps to protect Aaradhya’s dignity and well-being.
