Alia Bhatt has made a strong presence in both Bollywood and Hollywood with a series of successful films. She was last seen in the Gal Gadot film Heart of Stone (2022) which was a hit on OTT.

Alia responded, “I think it genuinely depends on the timing. When Heart of Stone came to me, I had some time, and I thought it would be an interesting opportunity to break into a new space, similar to what I did with RRR. It’s not about ‘I have to do a Hollywood film’ or ‘I need to take on this project.’ It’s more about pushing myself into unfamiliar territory and taking on challenges that help me grow.”

Alia Bhatt shifted priorities after becoming a mother

The Gully Boy actress has expressed her willingness to consider international opportunities, but she also mentioned that her priorities have changed since becoming a mother. Alia explained, “It’s now more challenging to leave for three to four months. I can’t simply pack up and go for extended periods anymore.” She acknowledged that accepting such commitments would necessitate careful planning.

Currently, Alia Bhatt is focused on the release of her new film, Jigra. However, directed by Vasan Bala, the film has struggled to perform well, earning only ₹4.25 on its opening day. Many on social media have labelled it a "weak" film, and Alia's performance has been described as "mediocre."
