Alia Bhatt’s journey in the film industry has been nothing short of remarkable since her debut in Karan Johar’s Student Of The Year in 2012. With each film, she has not only showcased her talent but also undergone a transformative journey. In a recent conversation with IMDb for their Icons Only Segment, Alia shared insights into how her characters have impacted her on a personal level.
Reflecting on her experience shooting Udta Punjab in 2016, Alia revealed that she went through a period of emotional and physical detachment from the world around her. It was a challenging role that pushed her boundaries, causing her to shut down emotionally during the filming process. This deep dive into method acting was a first for her, leaving a lasting impact on her.
The actress also delved into the profound effect that her role in Highway (2014) had on her. Spending long stretches on the road for the film made her feel like she was away at college, immersing herself fully in the character’s journey. This experience marked a significant shift in her perspective and approach to acting.
Discussing her latest project, Gangubai Kathiawadi, which earned her the National Award for Best Actress, Alia shared how working on the film transformed her as an actor. The collaboration with renowned filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali left a lasting impression on her, shaping her craft in ways she never imagined.
Looking ahead, Alia is gearing up for her role in the upcoming YRF Spy Universe movie Alpha, directed by Shiv Rawail and produced by Aditya Chopra. Alongside Munjya actress Sharvari, she is set to captivate audiences once again with her talent and dedication to her craft. The journey continues for this talented star, as she navigates the complexities of the industry with grace and resilience.
