Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s new massive bungalow worth Rs 250 crore is complete after years of work. A new video is doing rounds online and it gives the clearest view of the six-storey mansion. Now, the actress has penned a strong note on privacy and consent after pictures of her under-construction home went viral.
The Jigra actress began her note with, “I understand that in a city like Mumbai, space is limited - sometimes the view from your window is another person's home. But that does not give anyone the right to film private residences and push those videos online. A video of our home - still under construction - has been recorded and circulated by multiple publications, without our knowledge or consent. This is a clear invasion of privacy and a serious security issue. Filming or photographing someone's personal space without permission is not "content" - it's a violation."
She further questioned the ethics and continued, “It should never be normalized. Think about it: would you tolerate videos of the inside of your home being shared publicly, without you knowing? None of us would.”
