<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\nCelebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim has taken a strong stand against toxic behaviour in the entertainment industry, announcing that he will no longer work with celebrities whose managers allegedly disrespect or mistreat creative professionals and crew members behind the scenes.The hairstylist shared a powerful note on social media, calling out the growing culture of arrogance and rude behaviour towards people working behind the camera.<\/p>\n Taking to Instagram, Aalim wrote, \u201cWe have decided to step away from working with actors whose teams disrespect, demean, or mistreat any creative professional or crew member. Because talent deserves dignity. Hard work deserves kindness. And every artist deserves respect.\u201dHis statement quickly struck a chord with several members of the film industry, many of whom extended their support in the comments section.<\/p>\n Actor Rajkummar Rao<\/a> commented, \u201cAbsolutely sir. Respect and Equality two utmost important things.\u201dFilmmaker Farah Khan reacted to the post and wrote, \u201cWell done Aalim.\u201dGajraj Rao<\/a> praised the hairstylist for speaking up and commented, \u201cHuge respect for you, Aalim, for saying this out loud and clear.\u201dMeanwhile, actor Arjun Kapoor<\/a> shared, \u201cWith U on this @aalimhakim bhai.\u201dFilmmaker Zoya Akhtar wrote, \u201cBang On,\u201d while actress Chitrangda Singh commented, \u201cAGREE!\u201dKajol reacted with raised hands emojis, while actors Bobby Deol, Arjun Rampal, Pulkit Samrat and Aparshakti Khurana also showed support through emojis and reactions. <\/p>\n Aalim further highlighted how many managers allegedly misbehave with crew members and creative professionals over issues that may not even be their fault.\u201cIt is heartbreaking to see managers speaking rudely, humiliating people, throwing attitude, or releasing frustration on innocent crew members \u2014 especially for mistakes that are not even theirs. Authority does not give anyone the right to disrespect another human being,\u201d he wrote.The celebrity hairstylist also pointed out that actors are often unaware of how the behaviour of their teams impacts their public image and reputation.\u201cThe saddest part is… sometimes actors don\u2019t even realise how badly their image, reputation, and energy are being damaged outside the vanity van because of the behaviour of the people representing them,\u201d Aalim added. <\/p>\n Reflecting on the hard work and sacrifices made by technicians and crew members in the industry, Aalim wrote that many of them leave their homes before sunrise and work tirelessly to ensure actors look their best on screen.\u201cMany of these artists leave their homes before sunrise. Stand for endless hours. Miss festivals, birthdays, families, sleep, and peace… Only to make sure the actor they work with looks and feels their absolute best,\u201d he shared.<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim has taken a strong stand against toxic behaviour in the entertainment industry, announcing that he will no longer work with celebrities whose managers allegedly disrespect or mistreat creative professionals and crew members behind the scenes.The hairstylist shared a powerful note on social media, calling out the growing culture of arrogance and […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2418754,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[25173],"tags":[403102,473703,376554,306463,473702,356501,408438,410712,473700,473701],"class_list":["post-2418752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artists","tag-aalim-hakim","tag-aalim-hakim-refuses-to-work-with-celebrities-managers","tag-arjun-kapoor","tag-bobby-deol","tag-celebrities-managers","tag-celebrity-hairstylist","tag-gajraj-rao","tag-rajkummar-rao","tag-toxic-behaviour-in-entertainment","tag-zoya-akhtar"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Aalim-Hakim-refuses-to-work-with-celebrities-whose-managers-\u2018mistreat.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2418752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2418752"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2418752\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2418755,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2418752\/revisions\/2418755"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2418754"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2418752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2418752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2418752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\u2018Talent deserves dignity, every artist deserves respect\u2019<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
