Alia Becomes Mahesh Bhatt's Reason For Joy

Darpan News Desk IANS, 21 Feb, 2016 01:12 PM
  • Alia Becomes Mahesh Bhatt's Reason For Joy
Veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt is proud and happy over the journey of his daughter Alia in the world of showbiz.
 
As Alia went into nostalgic mode with her film “Highway” clocking two years since its release on Sunday by tweeting how the journey and experience of the film still give her goose bumps, the proud father responded by sharing that he is in awe of how she has carved her name in Bollywood. 
 
“The miracle of children is that we just don’t know how they will change and who they will become. You (Alia) make me so happy,” tweeted Mahesh, who has also called Alia a superstar on public platforms. 
 
To which, the “2 States” star said: “Hopefully half as wise as you daddy...I love you too much”. 
 
Helmed by Imtiaz Ali, “Highway” traces the journey of a girl from an affluent family of Delhi after she is kidnapped and how she falls for her abductor as she finds solace in his company.
 
Alia was lauded for experimenting and coming out of her peppy and glamourous mould of “Student of the Year” character. 
 
She is now looking forward to the release of “Kapoor & Sons”, and has also started shooting for her next opposite Shah Rukh Khan.

As road movie “Highway” on Sunday completed two years of its voyage, its lead actress Alia Bhatt went down memory lane, and said looking back at the film's journey and experience of filming it still "gives her goose bumps".
 
 
Helmed by Imtiaz Ali, “Highway” traces the journey of a girl from an affluent family of Delhi after she is kidnapped and how she falls for her abductor as she finds solace in his company. 
 
“Your love just makes my day, year, life! #2YearsOfHighway … A journey and experience that'll always give me goose bumps,” Alia tweeted on Sunday.
 
The 2014 film, with Randeep Hooda as the male lead, was shot in different places including Gujarat and Jammu and Kashmir. 
 
Apart from the abduction angle, there are issues like sexual abuse, and the other side of elite society embedded in the story. The film is backed by soulful music by Oscar-winner A.R. Rahman. 
 
 
Alia is now all charged up for her movie “Kapoor & Sons", and Randeep is also busy with his next movie titled “Sarbjit”.
