The next time you decide to channel your anger towards someone you don’t know on Instagram, stop and rethink. The world could use more love and less a**holes right now.
"This happened months ago, wish I had spoken about it sooner, but waking up and reading things like this just became normal to me - it's an everyday part of my life. Here's 1% of what I have to wake up and read every day," Alanna wrote under her post.
In a separate post, Alanna shared a picture of herself in lingerie and called out body shaming of women, especially at the hands of other women. “Stop body-shaming women. I have to wake up everyday and read the nastiest comments. Comments from people that don’t know me as human. What’s worse that waking up to hateful comments about my body everyday, is that it comes from other women,” she wrote, further adding, “The next time you decide to channel your anger towards someone you don’t know on Instagram, stop and rethink. The world could use more love and less a**holes right now.”
Ananya Panday cheered her cousin and commented, “YESSSSS LANSHUUUUU TELL EM u beautiful,” to which Alanna replied with hearts.
Recently Instagram came out with an anti-bullying feature that enables users to delete troll comments in bulk. Alanna's cousin Ananya had launched the "So Positive" initiative last year in July, on World Social Media Day, to fight cyber-bullying. "Our generation is prone to insensitive remarks. I wonder why civil conduct followed in real life is not followed on social media. Why make social media a dumping ground of so much hate, (Why) be so negative? (Why) not just be positive?" Ananya had said in the video that announced the launch of her initiative.
Alanna, daughter of fitness expert Deanne Panday and businessman Aloke Sharad Panday, is a model and social influencer. She has graduated from London College of Fashion, in fashion management, as per a news report.
