Alia Bhatt had to pee in public due to Highway!


Before Udta Punjab and 2 States, Alia Bhatt did an outstanding job with her second outing - Highway. Imtiaz Ali's movie changed things overnight for the star kid - she made an impeccable mark with her acting skills and it also well-known the fact that she is no diva but an actor who can go all out in terms of responsibly carrying a movie on her shoulders.

She played the character of Veera Tripathi - a city girl who was unaware of the world outside her home is being kidnapped and then explores the unexplored territories traveling through the highways of the country. From Rajasthan to Himachal Pradesh to Punjab to Delhi to Haryana to Kashmir, Alia shot in real locations and stood all rough and tough.

In a latest interview, she disclosed while shooting for the Imtiaz Ali directorial that she had to pee in public because there were no public toilets nearby. Not even once, the actor didn't complain even once - she lived like a nomad.

In Imtiaz Ali's own words, "While shooting for the film, Alia was like any other nomadic local. She roamed aimlessly on the streets of Kaza in Himachal Pradesh, she lay down on the roads and ate at dhabas on desolate roads. If she was not doing that she would be just soaking in the sun and staring at the lush fields of Punjab. I realised there is a part of her which is a nomad too."

In a previous interview, Alia had herself told, "We kept shooting like nomads. We were on the road in a truck and we would just stop where we saw good locations and just shoot if the light was great. It was a guerrilla way of shooting and I had to pee in public places! I would pee on the roads and joke that people will only get to see my back."
