After a series of serious films, Alia Bhatt to do a comic-caper

Actress Alia Bhatt, who entered Bollywood with Karan Johar's Student Of The Year in 2012, has proved her acting prowess and versatility with a number of films, including Highway (2014), Udta Punjab (2016), Dear Zindagi (2016) and Raazi (2018).

However, we have never seen her in an out-and-out comedy film. Though she has been part of films such as Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (2014) and Badrinath Ki Dulhania, they were not comic entertainers.


But looks like that a comedy film had been there on her mind for a long time now, that is why when Ashwini Iyer Tiwari approached the actress for a next light-hearted film, she gave her nod to it as soon as she was narrated the story.

Sharing her excitement, Alia says, “They have brought an extremely fun concept to me. I am very excited, as that’s going to be my breakaway film from all the serious ones. Now, I am doing a light-hearted film."

Other details about the untitled project will be out soon.
