On Alia Bhatt’s birthday, directors Zoya Akhtar, Gauri Shinde, Meghna Gulzar on what sets her apart

Firstpost  

Alia Bhatt turns a year older today, but it’s hard to believe. Zoya Akhtar, her director for the film, found Alia’s ability to focus her biggest asset. She goes entirely into her character and invades that space freely,” Shinde adds “This may seem like a small detail but it’s a big deal to be unconscious of your looks, profiles, angles, and make up. It’s rare and Alia’s commitment to a role far exceeds that.” Alia’s initial years in Bollywood drew a fair share of ridicule for her lack of knowledge of current affairs. She made it seem so effortless like it was second nature for her, and that’s where her dedication as a person comes into play.” In the last couple of years, Alia’s personal life, given her relationship with Ranbir Kapoor, has taken centrestage.
