Despite being one of the leading actresses in Bollywood, she has often come under fire for being a product of nepotism. She is a star kid and is going through a tough phase as people are trolling her for being privileged.
Now, in this article, let us have a glimpse at some of the darkest and unknown secrets about Alia Bhatt –
- Education
Alia Bhatt failed as a student in her school days. In fact, she was never a good student and was not interested in studies. She never studied well and always got poor marks in exams. She was a below-average student. She did her schooling at the Jamnabai Narsee School. However, she was more interested in sports.
Alia didn’t get into college as she always wanted to be a Bollywood actress. She got a chance to act after completing school. In fact, it was Karan Johar who gave her a chance to make a Bollywood debut with Student of The Year

- Religion
Religion conveys the principles of ‘faith’ and sometimes, the faith may change based on the circumstances. We’ve seen quite a lot of people renouncing their religious teachings only to convert to some other religions, a change that has been happening since the olden days. Only you can change what you believe in and others shouldn’t inspire you to do so.
But Alia Bhatt’s religion is complicated and it is still a mystery. Many people are not really sure whether she is a Hindu or Muslim. It should be noted that Alia Bhatt’s father Mahesh Bhatt is Hindu and her mother Soni Razdan is Muslim.
However, it is clearly evident from the fact that Alia uses the surname of her father, Mahesh Bhatt. Many people started believing that Alia is a Hindu. But before marrying Soni Razdan, Mahesh Bhatt converted his religion. He converted to Muslim. As far as Alia is concerned, she prays to every god.

- Love Life
Alia Bhatt’s love life has been controversial. If reports doing the rounds are to be believed, she had her first boyfriend when she was in her 10th standard. Their relationship didn’t last long as it went on for over two years.
However, according to Alia, her first boyfriend was too possessive and controlling. Alia has also disclosed that he was so controlling that he even selects her dresses to wear which Alia Bhatt did not like.
Before making a debut in Bollywood, Alia Bhatt was in a relationship with Ali Dadarkar and the duo dated for few years. Later, Alia dumped him just like that after her big Bollywood debut when she became quite popular in the industry.
After earning fame, Alia Bhatt then dated Sidharth Malhotra, her co-star from her debut movie ‘Student of the Year’ and they dated for quite a few years. Much to Sidharth’s disappointment, Alia cheated on him and then dumped him as well. It was because of her crush, Ranbir Kapoor, whom she is currently dating.
- Nepotism
The Bollywood industry has largely been influenced by people who haven’t heir link-ups in the film industry. The so-called star kids of already established ones are already in the headlines for all the reasons and are allowed to stay there despite their success or failure.
On the contrary, talented ones are struggling to set their feet. To make things worse, the Bollywood industry even leaves people when they go through bad times. It is cognisance of the fact that Alia Bhatt is a star kid and is a nepotism material in the Bollywood industry. She made her debut with Karan Johar’s ‘Student of the Year’.
It was too easy for her to get good opportunities in movies without any difficulties considering the fact that she has close connections in Bollywood. However, she never accepted that she got chance so easily in Bollywood for being a star kid. When she was asked about nepotism, Alia always evades the question by adding that nepotism surely does not exist in Bollywood.
