At the ‘Tipppsy’ trailer launch, Pooja Bhatt spoke candidly about her past struggles with alcohol. She said, "Today, I can stand on the stage and talk unabashedly to the world about the fact that I used to be tipsy at one point in time. I recovered openly. I made the world my AA class,” she stated. Bhatt emphasized that both men and women experience pain and can struggle with alcohol, asserting, "Tipsy aur sober hona mard ki jaagir nahin hai. Hum bhi peete hain, hum bhi recover karte hain. Humko bhi utna hi dard mehsoos hota hai. We can outdrink most men because our capacity to endure pain is much greater!”. She also discussed her new film, 'Tipppsy', which portrays women leading complex lives, reflecting on how society handles stress and the dangers of excess.
