Shehnaaz Gill slams Rs 600 black alkaline water trend, says she’ll just wash her hair with it

Actress Shehnaaz Gill called out the celebrity wellness trend of expensive black alkaline water, saying drinking it did “nothing” — and joked she’d rather use it for her hair.

Bollywood actress Shehnaaz Gill, known for her candid personality and roots in the reality show world, has spoken out against the wellness trend of drinking black alkaline water despite its premium price tag. According to a recent interview, Shehnaaz remarked that there was no noticeable benefit from drinking the water — priced at around Rs 600 per bottle — and that she plans to use the remaining stock to wash her hair instead of continuing to drink it.
Her comments come amid a wider conversation in the Indian celebrity circuit about which wellness products actually deliver value and which are simply marketed luxury items. By voicing skepticism about the popular health-fad, she is once again showing a relatable side to her large fan base, reinforcing her image as someone who questions flashy trends rather than following them blindly.
This move may stir more discussion around how Bollywood stars influence the adoption of wellness products among the general public and whether the premium prices are justified. Shehnaaz’s statement also cements her standing as a voice of reason in a celebrity culture often marked by extravagant endorsements.
