After ‘Student Of The Year,’ when I played that baby-doll, diva character, I knew I would be stereotyped, and I wanted to break that image of me. I loved that role, but I don’t want to be attached to one particular genre, so ‘Highway’ was a blessing in disguise. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
I’m almost a feminist and believe if a girl wants to do something, she should be able to do it in the same way that a man is able to, which is sometimes a problem in our country. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
I don’t know how to measure success. I have been fortunate that I got exciting films to do and work with talented directors who brought out the best in me. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
A role needs a certain tone, so your own tone also changes. It’s not like I lock myself up in a room to get into the zone. It is based on what I am feeling, because the minute you try too much, weird things happen. Of course, for an intense role you need some silence, and you need to do a lot of thinking.

I always wanted to act, but it was not because of the influence of my family. I just wanted to act since I was four! I used to watch a lot of movies. One of the things that attracted me were the songs picturised on ‘Govinda’ and Karisma Kapoor, who would dance in the middle of the street! Alia Bhatt Read Quote
Competitive feeling means you want do do good work. You can’t lie about wanting to be on top. There is no reason for me to be insecure at this time. I would be insecure if I was sitting at home doing nothing, but I am in films now, and that’s where I always wanted to be. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
It’s not that we go around the set thinking, ‘Oh, today we are going to kiss, so let’s enjoy’. It’s not that. It’s acting. If it’s important for the script, so be it. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
In reality, I’m very restless, and I get bored very easily. It’s the same with my career: I need to outperform myself with every film. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
I believe when things are going well, there’s pressure, and when things are going bad, there’s pressure. The pressure is more on the outside than inside. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
I grew up thinking that it’s okay to be sad, angry, and express your emotions. I have also banged doors and fought, as I have seen my mom do that when she would fight with my dad. Everything that I’ve learnt is from them, so I’ve never struggled to express myself. Alia Bhatt Read Quote
