Netizens response to Deepika Padukone’s appearance at the event
Netizens quickly shared their opinions about the images when they appeared on the discussion site Reddit. A user made a comment, “Deepu in her ash era. What’s that atrocious hairstyle.” Another user penned, “What is with her hair, girl? Please don’t do this to you.” A Redditor wrote, “DP needs to fire her hairstylist asap!” While several individuals disagreed with Deepika’s hairdo, one person made the point that a woman’s alterations after giving birth are common.
“I reckon she’s probably lost a lot of hair which is normal after having a child. Though to be fair, this style would only highlight that even more. Leaving it open can still be styled to look volumised. Maybe she just wanted to be practical for her little one.”
