Mahesh
Bhatt
On
Viral
Pictures
"When
I
saw
those
pics,
I
was
like,
‘Oh,
the
paparazzi
age
is
here
and
you
have
people
from
the
outside
using
their
premise
to
capture
the
image,
because
that's
what
the
nation
is
thrusting
for.' So,
not
saying
more,
I'd
let
the
paparazzi
guess
if
papa
is
raazi."
Even
Mahesh
Bhatt
Makes
Alia-Ranbir’s
Relationship
Official
"It's
very
obvious
that
[Ranbir-Alia]
are
making
no
bones
about
talking
to
people
about
them
being
intimate.
And
I
don't
belong
to
that
category
of
parents
who'd
advise
their
children
about
their
personal
choices."
Did
He
Give
Any
Relationship
Advice
To
Alia?
Speaking
about
the
same,
Mahesh
Bhatt
said,
"Alia
is
an
adult
and
it's
a
matter
that
she
has
to
resolve.
It's
their
life,
their
space.
I
respect
and
admire
them
for
choosing
to
talk
to
the
world
when,
and
if,
they
want
to
do."
Mahesh
Bhatt
Says
Alia
In
Not
Like
Him
When
It
Comes
To
Lead
A
Private
Life
"That
way,
she's
very
unlike
my
elder
daughter,
Pooja
(actor-filmmaker),
who
lives
her
life
in
the
public
eye.
I
never
had
walls
around
me
and
I've
been
very
expressive,
and
Pooja
is
more
like
me.
But
Alia
is
of
a
different
temperament
and
why
she
chooses
to
speak
or
doesn't
speak
is
something
she
has
the
right
to
answer."
Mahesh
Bhatt
Also
Praised
Ranbir
Like
Never
Before
"He
astounded
me
in
Sanju.
After
Amitabh
Bachchan's
Deewar
(1975),
this
is
the
first
time
I've
seen
an
actor
take
charge
of
a
character,
which
is
iconic
like
Sanjay
Dutt.
Ranbir
is
barely
34
or
35
and
though
he
comes
from
the
great
lineage
of
the
Kapoor
family,
he
has
a
unique
charm
and
talent
that's
his
own.
He
is
an
original,
just
like
Alia
is
an
original,"
added
Mr
Bhatt.
Does
Mahesh
Bhatt
Worry
If
Alia-Ranbir’s
Affair
Rumours
Overtakes
Their
Work?
"So
what?
Even
if
it
does,
that's
what
life
is
all
about.
Alia
haad-maas
ki
ladki
hai
and
she's
like
anybody
else.
Yes,
she's
a
star
today,
but
like
every
human
relationship
is
vulnerable
to
the
highs
and
lows,
my
daughter
is
no
different."
‘Relationships
Have
Seasons’
"We
tend
to
attribute
magical
qualities
to
celebrities,
but
they're
pathetically
similar
to
the
person
reading
so
hungrily
about
him
or
her.
Also,
relationships
have
seasons
and
I
don't
see
any
human
being
not
being
able
to
go
through
life
without
going
through
those
seasons,"
concluded
Mahesh
Bhatt.
