MUMBAI: Deepika Padukone stepped out in public on Friday to promote her cosmetic brand while flashing her stunning smile to dispel critics. Since going out to vote in the Mumbai Lok Sabha elections' fifth phase, Deepika is expecting her first child with actor-husband Ranveer Singh and has been under intense social media scrutiny. She had never before shown off her baby bump in public. Some social media users referred to her bump as "fake."

At the skincare brand's promotional event, Deepika merrily smiled at the photographers, seemingly unaffected by the jokes made about her baby bump. A fan addresses Deepika in a video that was posted by a Bollywood paparazzi, “Congratulations!” “On her many things,” the host quickly adds while indirectly referring to Deepika’s pregnancy. To which, the actress smiles and replies, “Thank you!”
Visuals of Deepika promoting 82 East also surfaced on several pap pages on social media. In one such video, the actress is seen smiling and waving at the paps.
Senior journalist Faye D'Souza recently wrote a strongly-written post on her official Instagram account, expressing her solidarity with Deepika amid the continued social media abuse of the actress.
Faye D'Souza wrote in her post, “Dear social media, Deepika Padukone stepped out to do her democratic duty and vote. She did not ask for your feedback on her body or her pregnancy. You have no right to comment on any aspect of her life. Stop it. Behave.”
Alia Bhatt liked the post right away. In reality, Alia's mother Soni Razdan, as well as her sisters Pooja and Shaheen Bhatt, liked the post.
