Since the release of the song 'Tabahi' from the popular Bollywood movie 'Toxic', there has been a lot of discussion and criticism on social media about the intimate scene between Yash and Kiara Advani. After various types of sarcasm were directed at Kiara in particular, actress Huma Qureshi has opened up on the issue. She stood by Kiara and Yash and commented that the criticism is a manifestation of a 'sick mentality'.

After the release of the song, many claimed that Kiara, a married woman and a new mother, should not have acted in such a scene. However, even though Yash, who acted in the same scene, is also married and a father of a child, there was not much criticism around him. Huma sees the matter as an example of double standards.

In a recent interview, she said that such comments bear the hallmarks of a misogynistic mentality. In her words, it is a manifestation of a very sick and dirty mentality. But I believe that the actress and director of this film will win in the end. There is no need to respond to these comments. People's mentality cannot be changed by words, the film itself will answer all the questions.

Huma also said that although the real world is very beautiful, the internet environment is not always like that. Therefore, there is no point in getting involved in debates with online trolls. According to her, the audience will evaluate the film properly after its release.

Meanwhile, the controversy was not limited to Kiara. Her husband, actor Sidharth Malhotra, also had to face various comments on social media. Many people took to his Instagram account and made negative comments about Kiara's acting and personal life.

Although the controversy surrounding 'Toxic' continues, the film's crew feels that the presentation of the film on screen will answer all the criticism.
