Alia Bhatt to team up with ‘Scam 1992’ director Hansal Mehta for a journalist’s biopic: Report
Alia Bhatt is currently busy with Jigra, her next film that will arrive in 2024, and Hansal Mehtaa’s next is ‘The Buckingham Murders‘ with Kareena Kapoor Khan. And a report by Peeping Moon says the two are likely to collaborate for a film supposedly a biopic on a journalist. Nothing has been confirmed yet.
Recently, in an interview with Elle US Magazine, the actress revealed why she avoided watching parents Mahesh Bhatt and Soni Razdan’s films during childhood.
She said, “Honestly, I was very sensitive as a child and I took the films too seriously. I didn’t want to see my mother being pushed out of a window or see her suffering. That wasn’t something I wanted to engage with.”
On nepotism
Alia Bhatt, who has experienced the same nepotism debate several times in the past, has made an intriguing revelation recently. Sharing her take on being a star kid, the actress told a news portal that ‘she was initially naive about her privileges.’
She further added that while she had always known her family’s presence in the film industry but things weren’t always easy for her too. Expressing her inclination towards movies, the Brahmastra star remarked, “But it’s not like my father ever spoke to me like, ‘Oh, the day you want to act, we will give you this movie’.” In fact, according to her, filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt has never even brought up the privilege part. “Never,” she continued.
