Actress Alia Bhatt, who is currently riding high on the success of her latest release \u2018Gangubai Kathiawadi\u2019, which minted Rs 39.12 crore in its first weekend, agrees that being a public figure is not easy and that constant vigilance and talks about her private life does get stifling at times.<\/p>\n
Talking about people wanting to know more about the actress\u2019s life and if it does get stifling, Alia shared: \u201cIt does. But then I am like \u2018why am I an actor?\u2019 If you want to be a public figure then your life will get public. That\u2019s why one tries to protect his\/her personal life.\u201d The actress, who is reportedly in a relationship with actor Ranbir Kapoor, says she likes to keep her private life guarded. \u201cLike I don\u2019t want to give out details of when I am getting married because it is nobody\u2019s business or where I am going for lunch as it is nobody\u2019s business. But people are speculating and talking about it, now that there is something I can\u2019t do much about.\u201d<\/p>\n
The actress is all set to complete a decade in Hindi cinema in 2022. She made her Bollywood debut with Karan Johar\u2019s \u2018Student Of The Year\u2019 in 2012 and was later seen in a string of hits such as \u2018Highway\u2019, \u2018Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania\u2019, \u2018Udta Punjab\u2019, \u2018Dear Zindagi\u2019, \u2018Raazi and \u2018Gully Boy\u2019 to name a few. How does she look back at her journey? Daughter of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and actress Soni Razdan, Alia said: \u201cI think I definitely evolved as an actor and a person. I was a bit all over the place initially running around trying to prove a point.\u201dThe 28-year-old actress says she is now doing things to make herself happy.\u201cI don\u2019t have pressure on my head. I don\u2019t think there is any fun in having pressure. It\u2019s not a race, it is a creative medium. You have to satisfy that creative bug inside you and move on. After working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali sir, my approach towards acting has changed.\u201d AGENCIES<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
