Alia Bhatt, known for her stellar performances in Bollywood, ventured into Telugu cinema with the movie RRR, sharing the screen with the talented Jr. NTR and Ram Charan. In a recent heart-to-heart, Alia delved into the special bond she shares with her co-stars, particularly Ram Charan, who made a truly thoughtful gesture by adopting an elephant in her daughter Rahaโs name.
In a candid chat with anchor Suma during a promotional event in Hyderabad, Alia revealed that despite her limited time on set with Jr. NTR and Ram Charan, they forged a strong friendship during the movie’s promotions. She fondly recounted a hilarious incident post her daughter Rahaโs birth, calling it a “funny story.”
Alia shared a delightful anecdote about returning home one day after a walk, only to be greeted with the news that an elephant had arrived for her. Bewildered, she humorously imagined a giant elephant strolling into her building. To her surprise, it turned out to be a wooden elephant sent by Ram Charan as a sweet gesture of adopting a real elephant in Rahaโs honor. They lovingly named the wooden elephant Ellie and placed it next to their dining table, where Raha enjoyed playing with it, leaving Alia touched by Ram Charan’s thoughtfulness.
Taking a peek into her personal life, Alia and her partner Ranbir Kapoor introduced their precious daughter Raha to the world on Christmas in 2023. Since then, Alia has shared glimpses of their little one on social media, including a heartwarming family photo hugging a tree, symbolizing the warmth and love they share.
Amidst her personal joys, Alia remains dedicated to her craft, currently immersed in the filming of Alpha, a part of the Spy Universe series, set to hit theaters on December 25, 2025. Additionally, she is gearing up for the filming of Love & War, promising audiences more of her magnetic on-screen presence.
In a world filled with glitz and glamour, Alia Bhatt shines not just as a talented actress but as a loving mother, a caring friend, and a passionate artist, bringing light and joy wherever she goes.
