The 2022 release of RRR, the magnum opus of Alia Bhatt and SS Rajamouli's collaboration, was an international smash. It was a top Indian entertainer that year, including Ram Charan, Prabhas, Alia, and Ajay Devgn. Actually, the Oscar for Best Original Song went to RRR's beloved song Naatu Naatu. While working with Rajamouli at RRR, Alia recently revealed some professional advice she received from him.
In a recent interview with Forbes, Alia Bhatt discussed how she listened to SS Rajamouli's professional counsel and how it helped her win over her audience.
The Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani star said that she isn't one to give things much consideration and instead acts on impulse. Continuing to elaborate on how the RRR director assisted her in forging a connection with her audience, she said, "From the beginning of my career, I aspired to be the most beloved person on the planet, particularly for the films I direct and the roles I portray. Do everything with love, he added; there's no formula. 'Even if the film bombs, the passion in your eyes will strike a chord with the viewers, and in the end, that's the goal: to create a personal connection with your viewers.'"
Alia said that after heeding Rajamouli's advice, she now feels comfortable enough to strike up conversations about her job with complete strangers, as if they already knew her. The next film Jigra, which Alia Bhatt and Karan Johar co-produced, is almost here, and the actress is busy getting ready for its release. Directed by Vasan Bala, the film is set to premiere on September 27, 2024, and it also stars Vedang Raina.
In the film Love and War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and starring Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal, she will next be seen. Alia just joined the cast of the next YRF Spy Universe film, which will also include Sharvari Wagh in a major role.
