Bollywood and K-pop fans clashed online after BLACKPINK’s Jennie released the teaser for Like Jennie. Alia Bhatt’s fans noticed similarities with her Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani theme, sparking backlash. Jennie’s supporters responded with racist and xenophobic remarks, escalating the social media feud.
Many Jennie fans were upset by Alia’s fans pointing out the similarity. They took to Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) to insult Alia and India. Some mocked her appearance by sharing unflattering pictures and calling her a ‘nobody,’ while others made racist comments about India’s cleanliness and education.

One Alia fan wrote, ‘B***h do u even know who she is? Her movie RRR was nominated fr OSCAR and a song from same movie won GOLDEN GLOBE. She is global brand ambassador of Gucci. Now what has your girl achieved?? This Diva made her country proud in Metgala meanwhile ur girl got trolled.’

Another one added, ‘Kid Alia has double the acting experience Jennie has in music, a hit one at that. That song is a Pritam (artist) song, Alia was the actress in the film. Rani was her character name. You are hating the wrong person here. Get a grip’.

One Reddit user stated that they ‘did not want to generalise’ but called K-pop fans ‘some of the worst’, writing, “i don’t mean to generalize but the k-pop and taylor swift fanbase are some of the worst fanbases. with k-pop fans, they spare no one. If its a man, call him a creep without any evidence, if its a woman, call her a pick-me and ugly. If its PoC then racism and sexism.”
Like Jennie features beats, thumps, and vocals that resemble Rani’s Theme from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. After the teaser release, Bollywood fans noticed the similarities. Jennie has announced that the full song will be out on March 7, and fans are eager to see if more resemblances emerge.
Alia was last seen in Jigra and will soon appear in Alpha and Love & War. Jennie debuted as BLACKPINK’s rapper in 2016 and released her first solo in 2018. She made her acting debut in 2023 as Jennie Ruby Jane in the TV series The Idol.
