The chirpy actress Alia Bhatt comes from a family
of actors and filmmakers, but with her resourcefulness and choice of movies
like "Highway", "Udta Punjab" and "Dear Zindagi",
she has made her own mark in Bollywood. She feels people are needlessly talking
"too much" about the existence of nepotism in the industry.
"We are talking too much about it. We need to
stop," the actress, who lately turned 24, told Alia when asked about her
views on the nepotism debate.
The debate was sparked off after actress Kangana Ranaut tagged
filmmaker Karan Johar a 'flagbearer of nepotism'.
Alia, who was launched in the Hindi film industry by Karan
with "Student of The Year", has been charged many a time with getting
an easy entry into Bollywood because of her father Mahesh Bhatt.
But, the actress let her work talk with her talent in her
second film "Highway". She again impressed many by taking the
attention away from Shah Rukh Khan in Gauri Shinde's "Dear
Zindagi", and in "Udta Punjab", she got a thumbs up for
portraying a Bihari girl with ease.
Questioned about what makes her choose roles as varied as
the ones in "Student Of The Year" and the very recent "Badrinath
Ki Dulhania", Alia told, "Like the way I don't dress up for other
people, in a similar way, I do different films for myself and not for someone
else. I want to do different films for myself and not because 'log aise kar rahey hai'
(people are doing so).
"That's the by-product of it."
Her five-year journey in the film industry has made her more
responsible.
