“I Have No Regrets” Alia Bhatt On Embracing Motherhood At The Peak Of Her Career
Bollywood actresses might have a seemingly perfect life but it comes with some repercussions as they are constantly judged for their choices whether it is in their professional or personal life. Actor Alia Bhatt who has been facing a lot of criticism as she recently welcomed her first child with husband Ranbir Kapoor recalled working throughout her pregnancy and how her decisions reflected on her life.
During a recent interview the actor opened up about her decision of having her daughter Raha Kapoor during the peak of her career and said, “Every moment is more meaningful as a mother. Also, I believe in myself as an actor. If you work hard, are a good actor and if people want to work with you, aapke paas kaam aayega. And if work doesn’t come to you, then so be it. Maybe it’s not your time. I am not someone who stresses too much about it. I value my work a lot, but I also value my life beyond it, and I want to strike a balance between the two. Dil mein jo aata hai woh karo (Do as your heart pleases).”

The actor also said, “There is no right or wrong in life. What works for me might not work for someone else. I have always been someone who listens to my heart. You can’t plan life. Life plans itself and you just have to follow that path. Whether it’s films or anything else, I always let my heart decide. Yes, at the peak of my career, I decided to get married and have a baby. But who says that marriage or motherhood will change anything to do with my work? Even if it does, so be it. I don’t care. I knew that in life, I would never regret the decision to have a baby. It’s a natural instinct. It’s the best decision that I have ever made. I have never been happier or more fulfilled.”
Alia Bhatt who has been basking in the glory due to the success of her films ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ and ‘Darlings’ will soon be seen starring opposite Ranveer Singh in Karan Johar’s “Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani” and alongside Gal Gadot in her Hollywood debut film titled ‘Heart Of Stone’.
