Alia Bhatt on Motherhood and Privacy
Alia Bhatt’s journey from a struggling actress to a National Award winner has been inspiring. But the biggest transformation in her life came after she became a mother to her daughter, Raha Kapoor, with husband Ranbir Kapoor. In a candid conversation with Esquire India, Alia revealed how motherhood has made her rethink her relationship with social media.
After Raha’s birth, Alia has been protective of her privacy, especially to shield her daughter from public scrutiny. She confessed, “Sometimes I wake up and think, ‘Okay, I just want to delete my social media and be an actor who acts. I don’t want to keep up with this conversation again and again.’”
Balancing Fame and Personal Life
Even though Alia sometimes considers stepping back, the actress admits it’s difficult because of the love and support she has received from her fans over the years. “I don’t want to do that,” she said, explaining that she’s mindful of what personal details she shares online.
Motherhood has changed her perspective completely. Her photo albums are now filled mostly with pictures of Raha Kapoor, and she finds herself putting extra effort into capturing personal photos of herself.
The Profound Impact of Motherhood
Alia reflected on how motherhood has altered her life in ways she never imagined. She said, “But when you see the child that you’ve made come to life, the scale of that change is so profound that it’s almost impossible to go back to who you were before.”
She admitted that at times, she feels she doesn’t fully remember her life before becoming a mother, highlighting the transformative experience of parenthood.
