Alia Bhatt got a lot of hate after reporters called her "Sita Maa" in a video that went viral. This happened at the same time as the release of ‘Adipurush’, in which Kriti Sanon plays Sita. Alia was at the airport when the incident happened. People on the Internet were quick to criticise both the paparazzi and the actress for her response, which was to try to hide her face without saying anything.

People on social media were upset, asking why Alia was chosen for the part and accusing the film's producers of trying to get too much media and political attention. In fact, one statement said, "Now Ram will eat beef and Sita will eat chicken. How low are these people willing to go to get money?
The viral video showed Alia's cute response to being called "Sita Maa," which led to more criticism. Users wondered why an atheist actress like Alia was cast in these parts and said she didn't deserve them. Some people also wondered why there needed to be another “Ram-Sita” movie when there was already one in the works. They mentioned ‘Adipurush’ and Kriti Sanon's roles as Janaki without naming them. Concerns that religious feelings would be hurt, personal attacks on Alia, and ideas that Ranbir Kapoor should play Ram instead were some of the things people said.

The incident adds to the ongoing discussion about who should play the parts of Ram and Sita in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana. According to reports, Yash from ‘KGF’ has been asked to play Ravana since Hrithik Roshan left the project.
