There is zero rivalry between the Bhatt sisters!
In a recent interview, acclaimed actress Pooja Bhatt shared candid details about her youngest sister Alia Bhatt, showcasing the beautiful bond the duo shares.
Pooja, who started her own film career back in the late 1980s, playfully described Alia as an "upgraded version" of herself and added that Alia and Ranbir Kapoor’s daughter Raha will likely be an even bigger upgrade.
Pooja said Alia knows “how to play” the game of navigating Bollywood. She revealed that they both approach showbiz very differently, noting that she didn't possess the same corporate sharpness back in her day.
“Alia and I are very different from each other. I have had my time. This is her time, and she has certain attributes, and she has a certain way of navigating this business that I didn’t have. She is very astute. That game you are meant to play, she knows how to play it, and she does it marvellously,” Pooja said.

She praised Alia’s film choices and the directors she has worked with in her career so far and said, “I am talking about the choices she has made as an actor, the filmmakers she has chosen to work with, the hours that she put in rehearsing.”
When asked if Alia’s 3-year-old daughter Raha will be an actor like her parents, Pooja said, “I think she is born to be one. Unless she becomes a NASA scientist… I don’t know. If you look at that child, she is riveting and look at the genes.”
“There’s a spark. When she walks into a room, everybody pales in comparison. Your eye only wants to rest on her,” Pooja said of Raha, adding that the “national obsession with her is a bit scary. You need to allow children to grow up.”
“I say on one hand you have this nepotism debate and on the other you only want news on Raha. You chant her name when Ranbir and Alia go to a stadium. I mean, come on, aren’t you being a bit hypocritical yourselves?” Pooja quipped.
