What secrets of Mahesh Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor did Alia Bhatt reveal in interview with Saurabh Dwivedi?

In a recent sit-down with Saurabh Dwivedi on *Lallantop’s Cinema Adda*, Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt opened up about her experiences in cinema, her relationships with her family, and her personality’s hidden layers.

Alia, with her sharp sense of humor and relatable down-to-earth demeanor, made for a candid conversation, full of memorable anecdotes about her upbringing, career, and how her family connections to industry icons like Mahesh Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor have influenced her both on and off-screen.

Alia reflected on her early memories of Bollywood, particularly recalling the classic duo Govinda and Karisma Kapoor, whose screen presence intrigued her as a child. These early memories sparked her curiosity, leading to her entry into Bollywood at a young age. When she was cast in *Student of the Year*, Alia wanted her father’s blessing, and Mahesh Bhatt’s support came in the form of a unique test. He encouraged her to stand up and articulate her feelings, building her confidence. This, she explained, gave her the push she needed to face the industry with courage.

Alia also shared her journey on the set of *Student of the Year*, her first major project, describing it as a “blur” due to her excitement. Reflecting on that initial experience, she sees it as a valuable lesson in handling the high-speed life of a Bollywood actress.

Alia’s career took a deeper, more introspective turn with Imtiaz Ali’s *Highway*. Alia recounted the spontaneous nature of the shoot, which included a scene where Imtiaz abruptly stopped the car, directing Alia to climb a mountain for an impromptu scene. She recalled the thrill and vulnerability of that shoot, which resonated deeply with her own “protected” life, yet challenged her to explore emotions she hadn’t faced. In her words, *Highway* felt like her journey and opened her up to a range of emotions, making the character of Veera Tripathi one she closely related to.

Another transformative role for Alia was *Udta Punjab*, in which she portrayed a substance abuse victim. This role, she said, was vastly different from anything she had attempted, pushing her to shed all comfort zones and explore “alien” territory. The role brought out a rawness and vulnerability in her acting that garnered widespread praise and showcased her versatility as an actress.

### Family Ties and Personal Life Insights

Alia also delved into her family heritage, recounting stories from her mother’s side, including her German grandfather, who ran an underground newspaper during Hitler’s regime. These stories, she noted, showed the courageous spirit she admires in her family, one that she tries to carry into her work.

She candidly spoke about her husband, Ranbir Kapoor, and the influence he’s had on her approach to cinema and life. Their connection, Alia revealed, is one of mutual growth and inspiration, though she admitted she avoids watching certain films with him due to their emotional impact.

### Sensitive Side, ADHD Diagnosis, and Personal Growth

Opening up about her mental health, Alia revealed a recent ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) diagnosis, explaining how this has shaped her focus in both her personal and professional life. She shared how the birth of her daughter Raha has further heightened her sensitivity. Emotional scenes, especially in films, now affect her more profoundly, causing her to avoid certain movies that she knows will trigger a strong response.

Alia described her experience of balancing a sensitive nature with portraying intense characters like Satya in her new film *Jigra*. She shared how the role’s complexity brought out a side of her that seemed far removed from her real self. The character’s stoicism contrasted with Alia’s “hyperactive” personality, adding layers to her performance and deepening her immersion in the role.

### Exploring Her Creative Side and Future Plans

Beyond acting, Alia shared her passion for charcoal painting and her aspirations to revisit ballet classes, an interest from her younger years. When asked about her artistic ambitions outside of acting, she emphasized the need to embrace life’s “ups and downs,” rather than shy away from challenges. Her father, Mahesh Bhatt, a significant influence in her life, is often a sounding board during her reflective moments, providing insights that she finds herself drawing upon regularly.

Alia’s reflections during her interview with Saurabh Dwivedi presented a well-rounded view of her journey from an industry newcomer to a versatile actress who continues to evolve. Her revelations about navigating fame, personal struggles, and the highs and lows of her profession give fans a deeper appreciation of her grounded yet resilient personality. With upcoming projects, Alia looks forward to bringing even more “jigra,” or courage, into her roles, proving she’s only just beginning to unveil her full potential.
