Actress Disha Patani faces online trolling after wearing a red lehenga with what critics describe as a deep-neck, “skimpy” blouse during Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations at the Ambani residence in Mumbai on Monday, September 14. Some social media users question whether the neckline is appropriate for a Ganpati puja and call for a dress code for religious events.
NDTV and the Free Press Journal both link the backlash to a broader pattern of scrutiny involving celebrity outfits at festivals. The Free Press Journal notes that the reactions bring renewed attention to earlier criticism of Kriti Sanon for a Raksha Bandhan advertisement outfit, with some users comparing the two incidents and alleging double standards in how similar clothing choices are judged. Other commenters on social media call out what they describe as “nudity” in festival settings, while some argue there is inconsistency in public responses.
As of the reporting, Disha Patani has not publicly responded to the criticism, and outlets describe the controversy as primarily driven by social media commentary rather than official action.
