Alia Bhatt had a wonderful year in 2022. Bhatt has been living the dream, from entering Hollywood to marrying the love of her life and having a child. While some praised the celebrity for handling everything so effortlessly and wonder why did Alia Bhatt decide to have a baby at the peak of her career? whereas others chastised her for having a child at the top of her career. Bhatt has a retort to this now.
Bhatt was asked about what motivates her to live a life on her terms when discussing the same topic. She spoke to The Indian Express, “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.”
She continued, “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.”
Talking about her motherhood journey, she added, “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).”
Bhatt wed Ranbir Kapoor in April of the previous year. Raha, the star’s first child, was born in November. In terms of her career, Bhatt is prepared for the next Bollywood movie Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani.
