Meanwhile, earlier on the red carpet, she opened up about being in front of the camera and called her daughter Raha her biggest source of inspiration. She said, “I say this all the time, but I think I came out of my mother’s womb on action. I feel most myself in front of the camera. Being in front of the camera is a blessing. I feel so grateful that I love my job so deeply. But I have to say that my true source of inspiration and magic right now is my daughter (Raha)” On the work front, Alia Bhatt will be seen in the film Alpha with Sharvari and Love and War with Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal.
