Alia Bhatt opens up about her relationship with Ranbir Kapoor
Actor Alia Bhatt made several headlines last year about her relationship with Ranbir Kapoor.
Alia said, “There was too much [focus] on the personal life, and honestly, I have never had my personal life getting spoken about so much. Earlier, these talks were very upar upar se but this year, it suddenly became all about that. Such talks don’t bother me, but I don’t like talking about it is because somehow, it then diverts all the attention, and that’s what it all becomes about. It’s not as if a relationship is an achievement. It is just a part – and a very important part – of my life. It’s seamless as well as beautiful and should be celebrated when it has to be. Right now, it should just be left on its own and kind of kept in a corner where it can stay safe and warm. You can say that it’s like a cat in my life that I want to protect, and it’s not ready to come on social media the way Edward has.”
Alia also talked about people's expectations from her performances, “People may not believe it but I am very interested and tuned into the trade aspect of films. It’s like the mathematics of film-making. So, you may understand the creative part but the business is what matters ultimately. At the same time, I am not delusional and have my own expectations from films. I am also aware that trade world also has certain expectations in general, but I am sure even the trade will understand what the capabilities are of a type A or a type B film. Interestingly, now, we have reached a point where films kind of speak for themselves. For Raazi, I had expected that it should make ?80 crore but it came as a pleasant surprise when it ended up making ?120 crore. That way, I keep very modest expectations.”
