Alia also revealed that a children’s book titled The Book of Emotions that she reads to her daughter, Raha, also serves as a reminder for her.

Love And War: This film with director Sanjay Leela Bhansali is something special for the duo Alia and Ranbir.

About the film’s progress, she revealed that it’s both exciting and tiring since they have been shooting mostly at night. The duo also mentioned that they are having a blast in the sets with discussions and hard work.  “Just to be on his set is tiring. It is long.

Ranbir assured that the project is definitely happening and the pre-production will start once the director completes War 2.

Raha and Paparazzi : Alia Bhatt also addressed her concerns over Raha being constantly photographed by the paparazzi. When asked how she expected it to be treated, she said, “Wait for her (Raha) to cross and then we will come up to take photos with you.”

Then Ranbir added, “We haven’t said that on special occasions; jaise Christmas lunch pe jaate hai…” But Alia interrupted him and said, “No, Ranbir, no.” She added, “Having said that again, I will request you all not to post.”
