Alia Bhatt: The Industry Is Not All About Star Kids, It's About Talent!

Alia Bhatt revealed that the film industry is not all about 'star kids' but it's about talent. She said if they are talented they go places, if there's no talent you'll not get anywhere in Bollywood.

The term 'star kids' is given to newcomers whose parents are from the industry and the name is a heavy baggage to carry. There are some pros when it comes to being a star kid as they get good roles from top film-makers, but the same 'star kids' badge ends up having a lot of expectations and if you fail to deliver, the audiences end up shaming the actor.

The bubbly Alia Bhatt opened up about the issue of star kids and said that the film industry does not care about star kids but only about talent, as that's what it takes to move ahead in life. She said, "No, the industry is not all about star kids. I believe the industry is all about talent. So if you have talent you will be in actor or a director or a choreographer. If you don't have talent, you won't reach anywhere.""

Alia Bhatt furthur commented, "You will get the first opportunity. Then what? But at the end of the day the audience has to accept you and want to watch your film. That will happen only when you have talent."

On the work front Alia Bhatt is currently shooting for Karan Johar's upcoming film Badrinath Ki Dulhania and is paired alongside Varun Dhawan. The film is scheduled to hit the theatres during the first quarter of 2017.
