What are some facts about Alia Bhatt?

 So, I'd start the answer by highlighting the fact that I'm a huge Alia Bhatt fan. And now, it is an established fact that she's one of the best actresses among the young generations that Bollywood can have.

Here are some facts about her :

• Alia loves animals. She actively participates in all the events related animal care and safety and joins the debate about it on social media too. She has a pet cat named Edward.
• She started her career at the age of 17. She came for the SOTY auditions in her school uniform :P
• She is still in her early twenties and has bagged two filmfare awards for her performance in Highway and Udta Punjab. Makes you proud as her fan, right?
• Ranbir Kapoor and Kareena have been her favorite from Bollywood and she has worked with both. Though she didn't have any scenes with Kareena in Udta Punjab but she's Ranbir's lead in Brahmastra directed by Ayan Mukherji which is slated to release this year.

• She recently participated in an event on May 1 which is observed as Labour's day by visiting a rural area in Maharashtra and participating in Shramdaan along with Aamir Khan.

• She loves home cooked food and her mom's cooked potato fries are her favorite.

• She is an extremely sweet and humble girl in person with no issues about being a popular Bollywood celebrity. I've not met her, but I draw conclusion from what I've heard from my friends who've met her.
• She has completed her schooling from JNS, Mumbai and even recalls a jingle about her school when asked in an interview.
• Her favorite holiday destination is London. Her current favorite book is, “The subtle art of not giving a fuck” which apparently she has gifted everyone close to her including her hair stylist and makeup artist.

I hope I was able to provide enough facts about Alia. :)

What's wrong with Kangana Ranaut? Why is she bashing Alia Bhatt?

Kangana Ranaut, national film awardee actress and Indian parliamentarian, is miffed with Alia Bhatt.

Awards : Kangana Ranaut often claims in her interviews that Film fare awards are fixed.

She claims, these are often awarded to a particular coterie.

Allegation : She feels, many undeserving actors and actresses get these awards.

Perhaps , she believes, Alia Bhatt got recognition for being related to known film makers.

Ignored : Her admirers point out, Kangana deserved awards for good movies like Manikarnika.

Well, her outspokenness against alleged malpractices has irked many in show business.

Tiff : Ironically ; her elder sister used unparliamentary language against certain actors- actresses.

Her social media accounts ( X / Twitter) was officially banned.

Boycott : Interestingly, Kangana no longer attends any film fare award ceremony.

She believes, these film award ceremonies are waste of time and energy.

Well : "Sometimes, the biggest enemy of a woman… is another woman". : Old saying

Who is the better actress, Shraddha Kapoor or Alia Bhatt?

• Alia Bhatt bagged Student Of The Year at age 17. Shraddha Kapoor was offered her first film by Salman Khan when she was only 16 which she declined. Seven years later when she made her film debut in Teen Patti - it bombed at the box office and nobody noticed her.
• Shraddha’s second film was a teen drama. It came. It went. The industry didn’t accept her as a leading lady. Around the same time everyone wanted to cast Deepika Padukone, Anushka Sharma and Priyanka Chopra in their films. There were fewer roles for a face like Shraddha.
• Alia Bhatt didn’t get much appreciation for Student Of The Year and was labelled just-another-Poo. She was ridiculed for her poor GK but she came up with Genius Of The Year and became everyone’s favorite. She turned her flaws into glitter.
• In 2014 Alia did Imtiaz Ali’s Highway. The film earned her a Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress. The actress was only 19 when she shot for this film.

• Shraddha tasted her first success at age 26 when she did Aashiqui 2 in 2013.
• Dharma Productions made films after films for their student Alia. Shraddha did what was offered to her.
• Alia proved her acting mettle in films like Udta Punjab, Raazi and Gully Boy. Shraddha did Haseena Parkar’s biopic and it tanked.
• Alia is the first choice when it comes to strong characters and high budget films. Shraddha is the first choice for films like ABCD.

Who is the better actress? You decide.
