Young actresses often are envious of each other. So, recently when Alia Bhatt skipped Shraddha Kapoor’s Baaghi success party, many assumed they were having a cold war.
The back-story? Well, both actresses had not talked to each other for the longest time and the issues were from Alia’s side this time. Here beau Sidharth Malhotra and Shraddha were in talks for a film and Alia didn’t want Sid to sign a new film opposite his Ek Villain co-star.
When quizzed about it, Alia says, “I skipped the party because I was shooting and not because I didn’t want to be there because of Shraddha. I don’t harbour any animosity towards her. There’s nothing wrong between us. She’s a lovely girl and we are constantly in touch and have a mutual admiration society going, where we are constantly sending each other messages and pics saying the other one is looking so amazing or hot! We have that kind of relationship and vibe. Shraddha is one of those people, I can say, who has a very unique, simple and beautiful charm about her. I find her very inspiring.”
As an actress, doesn’t she feel insecure about films or other actresses? Alia admits candidly, “If you had asked me this question a couple of years ago I would have probably said yes. But I think maybe because I am in a happy place, work-wise and personally. I feel that by being insecure and competitive, you are only spreading negativity and putting out an energy around yourself which is very tangible. You can spot a jealous person from far away. I am not saying you can’t be jealous, it is natural for one to feel that emotion, like ‘I wish I could be a part of that project, or dance as well as her’, etc, but the minute you change that envy into inspiration and if you seek inspiration from things like that, it just makes you feel better. I draw inspiration, not just from my contemporary actresses but also the boys too.”
Alia says that she doesn’t feel insecure as much as she gets intimidated by the attitude of people. “I get intimidated or feel uncomfortable when I get a vibe from that person is not taking me seriously. That kind of throws me.”
