Manushi Chhillar Shuts Down Troll Who Mocked Miss World Aspirants Crown Tattoo

New Delhi: In the world of pageantry, symbols often carry deep personal meaning and pride. But when one aspirant recently shared hers online, it unexpectedly became the centre of a social media storm. A social media user sparked controversy after publicly mocking a Miss World aspirant who shared her dream of competing in the Miss World pageant, and as an inspirational reminder, got a tattoo of the Miss World crown on her arm. The user posted a clip of the aspirant and wrote, 'I had to re-watch the video 3-4 times to grasp that THIS girl is aspiring to become a Miss World... Well, then I can become the sun or the moon too", a rather distasteful comment, that quickly gained attention for its dismissive tone and personal nature. However, the negativity didn't go unanswered. Miss World Manushi Chhillar, one of the most respected names in pageantry circles, came to the aspirant's defence, with her trademark graceful yet powerful response. Replying to the troll's post, she penned, 'and that would be better than spending your time belittling someone else'. Manushi's reply was a subtle yet stinging reminder about kindness, confidence, and lifting others rather than tearing them down. Check Out The Post Below: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Aryanshi (@a_r_y_a_n_shii) The Maalik actress's comment drew praise from the netizens who were impressed with her and applauded her for taking a strong stand and turning a hurtful moment into one of support and encouragement. Her response clearly sent a clear message about self-belief and the importance of empowering one another — a core value that the Miss World platform itself represents. Kudos to Manushi, for this much-needed show of support.

Dil Thaam Ke: Huma Qureshi song in Maalik leaves internet wondering why every dance number looks like Aaj Ki Raat

The new track from Rajkummar Rao-starrer Maalik, titled Dil Thaam Ke, was released on Friday. Picturised on Huma Qureshi, the peppy track sees the actor dancing up a storm in a shed with several other female dancers. Rajkummar also appears, but barely shakes a leg with her. Fans reacted to the song and gave a thumbs up for Huma, even as comparisons with Stree 2 song Aaj Ki Raat also cropped up. (Also read: Maalik teaser: Rajkummar Rao is finally not a small-town boy looking for a bride, turns ruthless gangster. Watch) In the song, Huma is seen showing off her moves in a shed with multiple other female dancers. Rajkummar, who plays a gangster, enters the shed with his men, which catches the attention of Huma. Even as she tried to tag him along to dance and loosen up a bit, he refused. Reacting to the song, a fan said, 'Huma can act and even dance so well. So good to see her.' A second fan noted, 'Huma Qureshi is such an underrated performer. What a look & those moves.' However, many users also noted the similar trend of dance numbers after the huge success of Tamannaah Bhatia's Aaj Ki Raat track from Stree 2. A user commented, 'The music, the dance steps and the whole vibe of the song are quite similar to Aj ki Raat maza husan ka song from Stree 2.' Another said, 'Why do I feel Raees vibes?' This was made in reference to the styling of Rajkummar's character, which looked quite similar to Shah Rukh Khan's style in the film Raees. 'Why is this song similar to Laila Mai Laila and even Aaj Ki Raat? Can't help,' noted another user in the comments. Produced by Kumar Taurani and Jay Shewakraman, Maalik is set to be a gritty tale of power, loyalty, betrayal, and one man's rise to rule it all. Pulkit, who is known for TV series like Bhakshak and Bose Dead/Alive, has directed the film, which will be released on July 11.
