Alia Bhatt’s name was put to the Blockout 2024 List for her silence on the Gaza conflict.
Alia Bhatt has recently gained international recognition for her consecutively gorgeous appearances at well-known events, such as the Met Gala in 2024. Her name appears on the Blockout 2024 list, which also includes the names of other well-known worldwide figures like Priyanka Chopra and Taylor Swift, suggesting that the rising wave has met a snag.
Due to her purported silence over the situation in Gaza, Alia has found herself in the centre of a growing controversy. It happened after she attracted attention on May 6 at the Met Gala this year while wearing a gorgeous Sabyasachi saree. The actor went on another foreign trip after the appearance, showing up in London on May 13 for the Gucci Cruise Show 2025.
Alia Bhatt has been charged with “complicity” for failing to take action and drawing attention to the ongoing violence between Israel and Gaza.
The Blockout 2024 campaign has been more popular in recent months on social media, particularly TikTok, where users criticise celebrities for not speaking out sufficiently against Israel’s attacks on Gaza. It represents an online demonstration in which people deliberately block celebrities on social media because they have not spoken out about the Israel-Gaza conflict or, in certain situations, because they are perceived to be supporting it.
