Instagram influencer Malvika Sitlani has had quite a difficult year. From separation from her husband to having a not-so-easy pregnancy, the blogger has dealt with it all and she emerged stronger. However, a ray of sunshine broke through her gloomy year when she gave birth to a baby girl on May 10, 2023. Her followers are elated for her and have been sending her their best wishes. However, when her brother posted about it on his Instagram, things took an ugly turn.
Malvika’s brother, Jake Sitlani, a content creator, took to Instagram and encouraged their fans to give Malvika space to appreciate motherhood. He also described himself as a young filmmaker and claimed that he shot his sister’s dream birth video since she wanted it. He asked their followers to be patient and to allow Malvika to decide how she wishes to share the video with her social media family.
He said, “The more time and space you give Mals and her daughter to reunite and be, the better experience you will have as an audience when Mals takes you on this journey with her.” Talking about the video, he said, “The success of her birth film depends largely on her online family, and she has the most amazing online family she could ever ask for.”
As soon as Jake posted the long message on his social media, netizens mercilessly trolled him for making content out of his sister’s delivery. One user wrote, “When I started reading it, I thought it was really sweet, but then it took a weird turn! Only these influencers can pick a beautiful moment and turn it into content and sales pitch,” and another wrote, “What a nonsense way of hyping his so-called birth film with a stupid write up. Please ask your sister to keep her phone away!” A few netizens also trolled Malvika and stated that she needs to stop posting every detail of her life on social media.
TBH, we feel bad for Jake. He was only trying to protect his sister while also fulfilling her wish for a birth video. Many women opt to film their baby’s delivery, and it’s normal! It’s awful that the family has to suffer the wrath of social media even during such a beautiful moment in their lives. We hope Malvika Sitlani and her brother don’t allow these comments to get to them. More power to you, Mals!
