The
outbreak
of
Novel
Coronavirus
(COVID-19)
has
us
all
worried
for
our
elders
as
those
who
are
over
60
are
the
most
vulnerable
to
the
virus.
Alia
Bhatt
expressed
that
she
is
constantly
worried
about
her
dad
Mahesh
Bhatt
because
he
is
70
plus.
She
revealed
that
she
is
always
reminding
him
to
take
the
necessary
precautions
and
pay
extra
attention
to
hygiene.
Alia
opened
up
in
an
interview
with
Rajeev
Masand
about
how
she
is
always
thinking
about
her
father
at
this
time.
"He
is
70
plus.
I
am
constantly
nervous
and
thinking....
That's
why
I
am
always
screaming
'don't
touch
your
face,
don't
do
this',"
she
said.
Alia
has
been
working
with
Mahesh
Bhatt
in
their
first
film
together.
Titled
Sadak
2,
the
film
is
a
sequel
to
Mahesh's
1991
romantic
thriller
Sadak.
Talking
about
her
experience
working
with
her
father,
she
said,
"The
experience
was
so
collaborating...that's
the
way
my
father
works...the
script
is
just
a
blueprint.
A
lot
of
my
input
and
suggestions
were
actually
taken
into
the
script.
I
need
to
give
credit
to
him,
he
kept
on
pushing
'you
should
write.
You
can
be
a
writer,
you
can
be
a
director'."
Sadak
2
stars
Sanjay
Dutt,
Pooja
Bhatt,
and
Aditya
Roy
Kapur
alongside
Alia.
The
film
was
shot
in
Ooty,
Mumbai
and
Uttarakhand,
and
is
scheduled
for
release
on
July
10,
2020.
Taking
her
father's
advice
with
regard
to
her
writing
seriously,
Alia
has
been
spending
time
in
isolation
honing
her
writing
skills.
She
said
that
some
of
'her
people'
are
very
impressed
with
her
skills.
To
make
the
best
use
of
the
alone
time
she
has
now,
she
has
signed
up
for
online
creative
writing
lessons.
She
is
also
spending
a
minimum
of
two
hours
a
day
reading
so
that
she
can
finish
at
least
three
books.
Apart
from
Sadak
2,
Alia
will
next
be
seen
in
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
Gangubai
Kathiawadi,
and
Ayan
Mukerji's
Brahmastra.
