Overview
- Soni Razdan told Zoom that online attacks on Alia Bhatt are “noise” that do not reflect reality and that Alia “can’t help whose child she is.”
- Razdan acknowledged that family connections led to an early audition but said Alia earned every step after that through hard work and on-screen ability.
- She highlighted Alia’s early decision to take riskier parts such as Highway as proof of the actress’s craft-driven evolution rather than mere nepotistic advantage.
- The comments follow viral clips from Alia’s Cannes 2026 appearances that suggested she was ignored by international paparazzi and triggered online trolling.
- Alia remains on a promotional run for Alpha, a female-led entry in YRF’s Spy Universe that is scheduled for release in early July 2026 with outlets reporting either July 3 or July 10.
