<p>Bollywood A-listers Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt were spotted leaving for Jodhpur on Sunday and left fans wondering what was on cards!</p>

<p>Some reports suggested that the two were going to scout for a wedding venue with marriage being on the cards for the two for sometime now. However, soon after, it was revealed that the two were headed to an exotic location in Jodhpur to celebrate Ranbir’s birthday. <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/ranbir-kapoor">Ranbir Kapoor </a>will turn 39 on September 28 and will have a private celebration.</p>

<p>Last year, Ranbir had celebrated his birthday in Mumbai with mother Neetu Kapoor, sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and <a data-ctorig="https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt" data-cturl="https://www.google.com/url?client=internal-element-cse&amp;cx=006054055338965708568:09spwrlibei&amp;q=https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt&amp;sa=U&amp;ved=2ahUKEwigoqy07J7zAhWDIbcAHbYgDFQQFnoECAQQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw0Gwqvp9bjpkc9W1OMWhMEn" dir="ltr" href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt" target="_blank"><b>Alia Bhatt</b></a>.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As for the wedding rumours, last year, Ranbir had revealed that if it weren't for the pandemic then he would have tied the knot with his girlfriend Alia Bhatt. The actor had also expressed that he wants to get married soon.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor have been staying together throughout the pandemic. She stood by him and the Kapoor family as they lost Rishi Kapoor in April 2020. She has also been accompanying Ranbir and Neetu Kapoor to oversee the construction work at the Kapoor’s plush bungalow Krishnaraj.</p>

<p>The real-life couple will soon be seen together in films. They will be seen in Ayan Mukerji’s ‘Brahmastra’.

However, soon after, it was revealed that the two were headed to an exotic location in Jodhpur to celebrate Ranbir’s birthday. Ranbir Kapoor will turn 39 on September 28 and will have a private celebration. Last year, Ranbir had celebrated his birthday in Mumbai with mother Neetu Kapoor, sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and Alia Bhatt. As for the wedding rumours, last year, Ranbir had revealed that if it weren't for the pandemic then he would have tied the knot with his girlfriend Alia Bhatt. The actor had also expressed that he wants to get married soon. Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor have been staying together throughout the pandemic. She stood by him and the Kapoor family as they lost Rishi Kapoor in April 2020. She has also been accompanying Ranbir and Neetu Kapoor to oversee the construction work at the Kapoor’s plush bungalow Krishnaraj. The real-life couple will soon be seen together in films. They will be seen in Ayan Mukerji’s ‘Brahmastra’. This sci-fi drama also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Dimple Kapadia, Nagarjuna and Mouni Roy in pivotal roles.

Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor spark wedding rumours after being spotted leaving for Jodhpur

<p>Alia Bhatt’s recent bridal ad has sparked a controversy after the ad questioned the tradition of ‘kanyadaan’ where the bride’s parents ‘give’ their daughter away to the bridegroom as part of Hindu customs and matrimony.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Among those who attacked the lines of the ad were Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut who took to her Instagram to shoot down the ad and those who participated in it including <a data-ctorig="https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt" data-cturl="https://www.google.com/url?client=internal-element-cse&amp;cx=006054055338965708568:09spwrlibei&amp;q=https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt&amp;sa=U&amp;ved=2ahUKEwif1eKb8pHzAhV3zTgGHQaDB3kQFnoECAcQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw08QBKU_letvAT8k5NLYyGp" dir="ltr" href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt" target="_blank"><b>Alia Bhatt</b></a> who becomes the bride in the ad. She asked brands to not “mix religion” into their advertising to manipulate “naive customers”.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Kangana wrote a lengthy post saying that women are worshipped in the scriptures and there’s no harm in seeing them as “precious source of existence”..</p>

<p>In the caption of her post, Kangana wrote, “Humble request to all brands ….. don’t use religion, minority, majority politics to sell things …. Stop manipulating naive consumer with shrewd divisive concepts and advertising…”</p>

<p>In her post, <a data-ctorig="https://www.wionews.com/topics/kangana-ranaut" data-cturl="https://www.google.com/url?client=internal-element-cse&amp;cx=006054055338965708568:09spwrlibei&amp;q=https://www.wionews.com/topics/kangana-ranaut&amp;sa=U&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjQ6pqQ8pHzAhXMyzgGHesbAoMQFnoECAgQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw3Na10ZFPOq93FjG5SBpW45" dir="ltr" href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/kangana-ranaut" target="_blank"><b>Kangana Ranaut</b></a> wrote on the tradition of kanyadaan. She also requested people to stop “mocking” Hindu rituals. “We often see a martyr’s father on television, when they lose a son on the border, they roar ‘Don’t worry, I have one more son, uska bhi daan main iss dharti Maa ko dunga. Kanyadan ho ya putradan, the way society looks at the concept of renunciation shows its core value system…”</p>

<p>Meanwhile, for those who’ve not seen the ad yet it has a mandap setting for a Hindu wedding in which Alia Bhatt’s husband-to-be is seen&nbsp;along with Alia’s family -- grandmother, father and mother. In the ad, Alia objects against the practice of kanyadaan at weddings. She asks why she was always treated as the “other” and a temporary part of their family, despite loving her so much. &nbsp;She says, “Am I a thing to be donated? Why only kanyadaan,” and is surprised when her mother-in-law and father-in-law give their son away as well.&nbsp;</p>

Alia Bhatt’s recent bridal ad has sparked a controversy after the ad questioned the tradition of ‘kanyadaan’ where the bride’s parents ‘give’ their daughter away to the bridegroom as part of Hindu customs and matrimony.

Alia Bhatt’s recent bridal ad has sparked a controversy after the ad questioned the tradition of ‘kanyadaan’ where the bride’s parents ‘give’ their daughter away to the bridegroom as part of Hindu customs and matrimony. Among those who attacked the lines of the ad were Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut who took to her Instagram to shoot down the ad and those who participated in it including Alia Bhatt who becomes the bride in the ad. She asked brands to not “mix religion” into their advertising to manipulate “naive customers”. Kangana wrote a lengthy post saying that women are worshipped in the scriptures and there’s no harm in seeing them as “precious source of existence”.. In the caption of her post, Kangana wrote, “Humble request to all brands ….. don’t use religion, minority, majority politics to sell things …. Stop manipulating naive consumer with shrewd divisive concepts and advertising…” In her post, Kangana Ranaut wrote on the tradition of kanyadaan. She also requested people to stop “mocking” Hindu rituals. “We often see a martyr’s father on television, when they lose a son on the border, they roar ‘Don’t worry, I have one more son, uska bhi daan main iss dharti Maa ko dunga. Kanyadan ho ya putradan, the way society looks at the concept of renunciation shows its core value system…” Check out Kangana Ranaut’s full post here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kangana Thalaivii (@kanganaranaut) × View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kangana Thalaivii (@kanganaranaut) × Meanwhile, for those who’ve not seen the ad yet it has a mandap setting for a Hindu wedding in which Alia Bhatt’s husband-to-be is seen along with Alia’s family -- grandmother, father and mother.

<p>The Bombay High Court has granted an interim stay on proceedings initiated by a local court against actor Alia Bhatt and filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali in a criminal defamation complaint filed in connection with the movie 'Gangubai Kathiawadi'.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The HC granted the interim stay till the next date of hearing --&nbsp;September 7.</p>

<p>The case was filed after one Babuji Shah, who claimed to be the adopted son of Gangubai Kathiawadi, said the film would defame his mother.</p>

Priyanka Chopra, Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif to go on a road trip, announce new film 'Jee Le Zaraa'

<p>As Farhan Akhtar announced his new directorial venture on Tuesday, fans had much to celebrate. The newly announced project<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-priyanka-chopra-alia-bhatt-katrina-kaif-to-go-on-a-road-trip-announce-new-film-jee-le-zaraa-404402"> 'Jee Le Zara' </a>not only has Akhtar donning the director's hat after a long time, but it will be Bollywood's first road trip movie with three female actors playing the lead.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The film features Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt. Sharing a picture with her `girlfriends`, Priyanka recalled the 2019`s November month when on an unusually rainy night in Mumbai she mused about wanting to do another Hindi movie 'ASAP'.&nbsp;<br />
"But it had to be the right one - different, cool, never been done before... I thought. The idea grew into a movie helmed by an all-female cast. There are not enough Hindi movies that are female multi-starrers. This led to an impulsive phone call... to my 2 real friends about this idea that involved 3 on-screen girlfriends. A celebration of friendship we called it!!" Priyanka shared in the caption.<br />
<br />
The `Bajirao Mastani` actor further shared that the three divas "enthusiastically met in February 2020", just before the COVID-19 pandemic, "to discuss who we could trust to bring this vision to life for us and our choice was unanimous... Farhan and Ritesh, Zoya and Reema. We had all worked with @excelmovies and @tigerbabyfilms individually so this seemed perfect. It just so happened that Farhan was working on a female road trip movie at the same time! Talk about all the stars aligning!!"Priyanka revealed that it took a three-year-long gap to align their work schedules with each other." This one is to sisterhood... to friendship and to breaking the mould!! Can`t wait to get on the road with Aloo and Katty. My heart`s smiling. See you at the movies," she concluded.</p>

As Farhan Akhtar announced his new directorial venture on Tuesday, fans had much to celebrate. The newly announced project 'Jee Le Zara' not only has Akhtar donning the director's hat after a long time, but it will be Bollywood's first road trip movie with three female actors playing the lead. The film features Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt. Sharing a picture with her `girlfriends`, Priyanka recalled the 2019`s November month when on an unusually rainy night in Mumbai she mused about wanting to do another Hindi movie 'ASAP'. "But it had to be the right one - different, cool, never been done before... I thought. The idea grew into a movie helmed by an all-female cast. There are not enough Hindi movies that are female multi-starrers. This led to an impulsive phone call... to my 2 real friends about this idea that involved 3 on-screen girlfriends. A celebration of friendship we called it!!" Priyanka shared in the caption. The `Bajirao Mastani` actor further shared that the three divas "enthusiastically met in February 2020", just before the COVID-19 pandemic, "to discuss who we could trust to bring this vision to life for us and our choice was unanimous... Farhan and Ritesh, Zoya and Reema. We had all worked with @excelmovies and @tigerbabyfilms individually so this seemed perfect. It just so happened that Farhan was working on a female road trip movie at the same time! Talk about all the stars aligning!!"Priyanka revealed that it took a three-year-long gap to align their work schedules with each other." This one is to sisterhood... to friendship and to breaking the mould!! Can`t wait to get on the road with Aloo and Katty. My heart`s smiling. See you at the movies," she concluded.

<p>In the post-pandemic world, regular film shoots have come to resemble sci-si storyboards</p>

<p>Just in case you are wondering how the world’s most prolific film industry is dealing with the pandemic, here are a series of pictures that seem surreal if you compare them to the old normal. Not too long ago, film sets were spontaneously interactive places bustling with production crews, seamless energy and round-the-clock activity.</p>

<p>Since the onset of the pandemic, film sets have become ultra-sanitised, hyper-vigilant spaces that seem to mimic science fiction rather than real life. Post the rising infection rates all around and even among top-ranking actors, the industry is trying its best to adapt to the challenges posed by &nbsp;COVID-19 and is relying on specialised services to pandemic proof their sets. One man who is spearheading this shift is Aditya Gupta, an industry insider and the brain behind India’s first set safety company, ‘Life First’. &nbsp;</p>

<p>The snapshots below depict how he is protecting some of the best-known production houses with the help of state-of-the-art sanitation equipment, pandemic adaptive technology and bio bubbles. The mantra of the company being, “We put your life first.”</p>

<p>Among the clients who trust this message are Ram Madhvani, &nbsp;Dharma Productions, &nbsp;Netflix, Red Chillies Entertainment, Excel Entertainment, Amazon Prime Video, Abundantia Entertainment, and many others. ‘Life First’ has also supervised the safety protocols of over 700 ad films. &nbsp;</p>

In the post-pandemic world, regular film shoots have come to resemble sci-si storyboards Just in case you are wondering how the world’s most prolific film industry is dealing with the pandemic, here are a series of pictures that seem surreal if you compare them to the old normal.

In the post-pandemic world, regular film shoots have come to resemble sci-si storyboards Just in case you are wondering how the world’s most prolific film industry is dealing with the pandemic, here are a series of pictures that seem surreal if you compare them to the old normal. Not too long ago, film sets were spontaneously interactive places bustling with production crews, seamless energy and round-the-clock activity. Since the onset of the pandemic, film sets have become ultra-sanitised, hyper-vigilant spaces that seem to mimic science fiction rather than real life. Post the rising infection rates all around and even among top-ranking actors, the industry is trying its best to adapt to the challenges posed by COVID-19 and is relying on specialised services to pandemic proof their sets. One man who is spearheading this shift is Aditya Gupta, an industry insider and the brain behind India’s first set safety company, ‘Life First’. The snapshots below depict how he is protecting some of the best-known production houses with the help of state-of-the-art sanitation equipment, pandemic adaptive technology and bio bubbles. The mantra of the company being, “We put your life first.” Among the clients who trust this message are Ram Madhvani, Dharma Productions, Netflix, Red Chillies Entertainment, Excel Entertainment, Amazon Prime Video, Abundantia Entertainment, and many others. ‘Life First’ has also supervised the safety protocols of over 700 ad films.

<p>Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt has announced a podcast series to amplify awareness regarding the COVID-19 vaccination. Calling it ‘The Intersection: Vaccinate India’, it will be a 5-episode series and is backed by Alia's production house Eternal Sunshine Productions and podcast network Audiomatic.</p>

Science gave us vaccines and vaccines give us hope. Thanks to vaccines, we now have a way of ending this pandemic and rebuilding our lives. But even though the vaccine is here and waiting, some of us are still hesitant. A great deal of this hesitancy is linked to misinformation, myths, and rumors that are exchanged on social media and other messaging platforms.”</p>

<p>Admitting that getting the Covid-19 vaccine is a personal choice, the actress said that this is the reason she has partnered with Audiomatic so that "together we can learn about the vaccine from reliable sources and make the most informed decision about getting vaccinated,” she added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Alongside the video, she wrote, "Shared knowledge is our greatest ally in this fight against Covid-19. Together, &nbsp;@audiomaticIN &nbsp;and @EternalSunProd are bringing to you a 5 part series that can help us understand the Covid-19 vaccines a little better."</p>

<p>Taking to his Instagram handle, the Pakistani rapper dropped a special song video featuring him and montages of Alia's various characters from films. The lyrics of the rap included names of <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt">Alia Bhatt</a>'s&nbsp;films like ‘Student of The Year’, ‘Raazi’, ‘Highway’ and others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The actress responded to the song and wrote, "Bohut hard" with fire emoticons.</p>

Alia Bhatt tests positive for coronavirus, isolates herself at home

<p>‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ is now in serious trouble. Starring Alia Bhatt in eponymous role, <strong>Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film</strong> has been dragged to court by Babu Rawji Shah, of the four children adopted by Gangubai Kathiawadi, on whom the film is based.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sanjay Leela Bhansali and<a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/alia-bhatt"> Alia Bhatt </a>have been summoned by the Mumbai court for the same. They will have to present themselves before court on May 21.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Shah is one of the four children adopted by Gangubai Kathiawadi. He has claimed that the chapter on Gangubai Kathiawadi in Hussain Zaidi’s book, ‘Mafia Queens of Mumbai’, is defamatory, tarnishes her reputation and violates his right to privacy and self-respect.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-gangubai-kathiawadi-teaser-alia-bhatt-transforms-into-mumbais-mafia-queen-in-sanjay-leela-bhansalis-next-365901" hreflang="en">'Gangubai Kathiawadi' teaser: Alia Bhatt transforms into Mumbai's mafia queen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next</a></p>

<p>Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi is based on Hussain Zaidi’s book.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-gangubai-kathiawadi-change-film-title-demands-maharashtra-politician-369056" hreflang="en">Gangubai Kathiawadi: 'Change film title', demands Maharashtra politician</a></p>

<p>This is not the first time that Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film has courted trouble as his previous project ‘Padmaavat’ was in an even more serious legal trouble when a fringe group claimed it maligned the image of their historical queen Padamavati on whose life the film was based on. The name of the film was thus changed to ‘Padmaavat’</p>

‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ is now in serious trouble. Starring Alia Bhatt in eponymous role, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film has been dragged to court by Babu Rawji Shah, of the four children adopted by Gangubai Kathiawadi, on whom the film is based. Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Alia Bhatt have been summoned by the Mumbai court for the same. They will have to present themselves before court on May 21. Shah is one of the four children adopted by Gangubai Kathiawadi. He has claimed that the chapter on Gangubai Kathiawadi in Hussain Zaidi’s book, ‘Mafia Queens of Mumbai’, is defamatory, tarnishes her reputation and violates his right to privacy and self-respect. 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' teaser: Alia Bhatt transforms into Mumbai's mafia queen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi is based on Hussain Zaidi’s book. Gangubai Kathiawadi: 'Change film title', demands Maharashtra politician This is not the first time that Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film has courted trouble as his previous project ‘Padmaavat’ was in an even more serious legal trouble when a fringe group claimed it maligned the image of their historical queen Padamavati on whose life the film was based on. The name of the film was thus changed to ‘Padmaavat’ ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ is scheduled to release in theatres on July 30. Alia Bhatt turns 28, unveils the look of her character Sita from 'RRR'

Alia Bhatt, Sanjay Leela Bhansali summoned by Mumbai court over 'Gangubai Kathiawadi'

<p>Alia Bhatt has come a long way from being the cute, frivolous, pretty young thing. The new sing-dance-romance Student of the Year to accept – and shine – in complex roles like Highway, Udta Punjab, &nbsp;Raazi &amp; Gully Boy. Once a solid competitor and rival of the [more?] gifted Parineeti Chopra, her smarter choices of directors, films &amp; roles allowed her to zoom past the Chopra kudi who goofed big in that area. &nbsp;</p>

<p>While all sane people will agree that the final frontier in the success game is definitely luck, the run-up has to be intelligence, talent and hard work.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Parineeti’s situation continues to be unique: flawless performances in forgettable, mediocre films. &nbsp;</p>

<p>It’s like making a century for the losing side. Doesn’t count, dude! &nbsp;The Bhatt lass on the other hand has voluntarily chosen to enter a mined zone with no safety net &amp; challenge herself with projects &amp; roles that demand deep exploration of the linear truth, warts &amp; all and emerged triumphant!&nbsp;</p>

<p>This has filled her ever-widening constituency with new doses of surprise &amp; delight and even prompted the one person severely allergic to Bollywood, Naseeruddin Shah to admit that Alia Bhatt “is a natural”. &nbsp;</p>

<p>High praise from a powerhouse performer who looks at Tinsel Town as nautanki &amp; circus!</p>

<p>Presently, with her latest &amp; most ambitious starrer, Gangubai Kathiawadi’s promos out, has her biggest histrionic challenge arrived? &nbsp;</p>

<p>Way more demanding and complex than the other four, can she pull this off with the required intensity? Will GK be her make-or-break role towards anointing her as the finest of her generation and elevate her to the gallery of the biggies?</p>

<p>Unfortunately, since Sanjay Leela Bhansali, director of GK is controversies, darling [remember Ram Leela &amp; Padmavat?] the promos reportedly triggered mass chaos! &nbsp;The family of Gangubai threatened court action and the residents of Kamathipura took to the streets to protest strongly about Alia &amp; Bhansali’s misrepresentation of the character &amp; defamatory, shameless, uninformed &amp; insensitive depiction of the area.&nbsp;</p>

<p>This, they insist, is likely to damage the image of this place and spell ruin to the life &amp; times of the resident’s present &amp; future. Once again, before the film’s release, Bhansali will have to get pro-active as a defender of these allegations. He will have to assure the protesters that he neither attempted to portray faked realism nor masala-fied the environment and characters to spice up the creative license for commercial purposes.</p>

<p>Cut back to the main story. The first teasers elicited appreciation galore from Industry-wallahs and fans. Hailing her interpretation of the fiery, feisty &amp; fearless Queen of Kathiawadi, who could be brazen, authoritative and wily in one deadly sweep, it was felt that the young actress had indeed got into the bone &amp; marrow of the character. &nbsp;<br />
Others felt it was too early to comment but generally liked her take of GK. Still, others didn’t quite hit the same page. They found it superficial and openly admitted that it felt like a Flipkart TVC, where kids play grown-ups to grab eyeballs of viewers to ramp up the TRP!</p>

<p>The nay-sayers take first strike. Kolkata based Palash Sen, a gifted photographer, believes that while Alia’s credentials as a top-class actor is non-negotiable, this piece of casting may be the first miscasting of her life. For one, she looks way too young for the part. A hardcore, hardened brothel queen ruling her fiefdom with brazen bravura, demands a different presence. Remember Vidya Balan in Begum Jaan, Shabana Azmi in Godmother or Seema Goswami in Phoolan Devi? &nbsp;Despite her well-tutored and executed mannerisms, Alia appears to be acting – not living the role, like the other three. Sure, she’s played out of her oh-cho-chweet comfort zone earlier, but GK is another planet. She lacks the lived-in looks and her lines delivered appear to be like play-acting. &nbsp;The role needs a raw and rough edge, a gravitas to make it convincing &amp; credible”. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Bangalore based film buff Romsha Sharma dismisses this POV with the arrogance of a 20-year-old. &nbsp;</p>

<p>“Palash has spoken. We have heard, Luckily, opinions are not facts and the history of both these talented artistes – actor &amp; director – prove that they have always been tilting at windmills &amp; emerged with flying colours. &nbsp;Remember Rani and the Big B in Black? Ash, Salman and Ajay in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam? &nbsp;Hrithik and Ash in Guzarish? &nbsp;SRK, Madhuri and Ash in Devdas? Ranveer and Dipu in Bajirao, Ram Leela &amp; Padmavat? &nbsp;In every instance, the stars have been challenged and inspired to offer outstanding performances, punching way above their weight. Every single actor mentioned has never failed to acknowledge the amazing execution of Bhansali’s vision, blending larger-than-life opulence, aesthetics &amp; mesmerising story-telling. Sure, Alia has never played a mafia queen but had Rani ever played a deaf-mute before Black? A gorgeous, sexy, glam star ripped off of any semblance to beauty, Rani still can’t thank Sanjay enough for a role that blew everybody’s mind. Bhansali’s eyes &amp; instinct are usually on target and I am sure that the Alia-Bhansali combine will do wonders.”</p>

<p>At the end of the day, it’s a tough call. &nbsp;Both Alia &amp; Bhansali have fantastic track records and despite the odd glitch [Sawariya &amp; Guzarish; Kalank &amp; Sadak 2] they are respected, admired &amp; eminently bankable with a captive fan base. &nbsp;</p>

<p>It appears that the film-maker’s penchant for historicals never fail to catch fire, both with the protesters &amp; box office! &nbsp;Why should this biopic be any different for a guy who loves living dangerously, hitting the scary &amp; adventurous road less travelled and of course, taking panga with the hypersensitive types. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Funnily, once they sit across the table for discussions, a [discreet?] compromise is invariably reached, aal is well!</p>

<p>In conclusion, Alia Bhatt’s journey has been a fascinating one with promise and performance, perfectly matched. &nbsp;Functioning in an industry where quality is equated with star power, winning awards, being a BO champ, signing inflammatory contracts and possessing immense marketable charm, star-struck fans should hesitate to fling the word GREAT her way. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Why? Because the word is the most telling monosyllable in criticism, an accolade that is jealously guarded by a special few. It fuses mastery of mystique &amp; magic, technique, hard labour, passion, determination, good luck, magnetism and an ability to lose oneself when the gods descend. The mystery lies in the harmony of actor and character, illusion &amp; reality, con-trick &amp; sacrament, being &amp; seeming.</p>

<p>The day the young actress embraces these sublime traits, she will move into the pantheons of gods chosen few. Till then, Gangubai Kathiawadi haazir ho!!</p>
