Mahesh Bhatt recently expressed pride in his daughter Alia Bhatt’s film journey. He highlighted her determination and individuality, which he claims have always set her apart since childhood. Her unique approach to life stood out to him early on.
He admitted he didn’t recognize her acting talent until much later. By the time he noticed, Alia had already begun working with Karan Johar. Mahesh shared he never felt pressured to launch her, as she was already building her path in the industry.
He views her as self-made, having reached her position through her own effort. Excited about her progress, Mahesh praised her acting growth and shared his joy as a proud father. He also mentioned that Ranbir Kapoor agrees with this perspective.
According to Mahesh, Ranbir described Alia as incredible for her constant drive, while calling himself more relaxed and easygoing. Though Mahesh acknowledged the existence of nepotism, he believes that true talent can flourish regardless of its origin.
Some fans questioned these claims, saying they are unverified and possibly misleading. Online discussions continued with fans comparing Ranbir’s talent to Alia’s rise, reigniting debates on nepotism and who’s more deserving.
