Bollywood stars have always inspired fashion, trends, and even products. One of the more unique ways fans express their love for these stars is through dolls created in their likeness. From Aishwarya Rai’s doll to Kareena Kapoor’s son Taimur Ali Khan’s toy figure, many of these celebrity dolls have created quite a buzz in the market, some even sparking controversy or memes.
Recently, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s doll has become a trending topic on social media, with mixed reactions. Let’s explore how different Bollywood-inspired dolls have left their mark, and even caused some unexpected reactions!
Aishwarya Rai’s Doll: A Viral Sensation
Aishwarya Rai, known for her timeless beauty, continues to be in the limelight for various reasons. While there are ongoing rumors about her personal life and marriage to Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya’s career continues to attract attention. Recently, a doll inspired by her look at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding made waves online.
The doll, dressed in a red Anarkali suit, attempts to replicate Aishwarya’s iconic appearance, but it didn’t receive the praise one might expect. Social media users had a field day trolling the doll, comparing it to everything from fictional characters like Radhe Maa to spooky figures like Manjulika. Though some fans appreciated the effort put in by Sri Lankan artist Nigation, others felt it didn’t do justice to the Bollywood diva.
Kareena Kapoor’s Reaction to Taimur Ali Khan’s Doll: Not Amused
Before Aishwarya’s doll, Kareena Kapoor Khan’s son, Taimur Ali Khan, was also immortalized as a toy. Taimur, who has been a favorite among paparazzi since birth, has always grabbed the media’s attention. His popularity as a star kid was so immense that toy manufacturers jumped at the chance to create a doll in his likeness.
However, Kareena Kapoor wasn’t thrilled by the idea. During a talk show a few years ago, Kareena expressed her disapproval, stating that the doll didn’t resemble her son. She humorously compared the doll to Chucky, the infamous haunted doll from the horror movie Child’s Play, saying that it looked more frightening than cute. Her reaction went viral, with fans laughing at the comparison.
Deepika Padukone’s Padmaavat Doll: Mixed Reviews
Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone also had a doll made in her image after the release of Padmaavat, a movie where her royal and traditional look became iconic. The doll, inspired by her regal portrayal of Queen Padmavati, was well-received by many. However, just like Aishwarya’s doll, it didn’t escape some criticism. Some fans pointed out that the doll didn’t quite resemble Deepika, leading to a mix of admiration and memes on social media.
Katrina Kaif’s Barbie Doll: Loved by Fans
Unlike some of the other Bollywood dolls, Katrina Kaif’s Barbie doll received an overwhelmingly positive response. Katrina, known for her beauty and charm, became the first Indian actress to be honored by the international toy brand Mattel, which made her a Barbie doll. Katrina’s doll was part of a special edition that placed her among the likes of Hollywood legends like Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn. Fans loved her doll, and it became a symbol of her global appeal.
Celebrity Dolls: A Trend That Continues
The trend of creating dolls inspired by Bollywood stars seems to be here to stay. Whether it’s Aishwarya Rai, Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone, or even star kids like Taimur Ali Khan, fans enjoy seeing their favorite celebrities in toy form. However, these dolls often face their share of criticism, humor, and memes, depending on how closely they resemble the stars.
From Kareena’s light-hearted criticism of Taimur’s doll to social media’s mixed reaction to Aishwarya’s figure, Bollywood dolls never fail to stir conversation. Some become collector’s items, while others serve as a source of entertainment. Regardless, these dolls reflect the enduring love fans have for Bollywood and its biggest icons.
