Alia Bhatt Recollects Jumping With Joy After Knowing She'll Be Cast Opposite Salman Khan

Alia Bhatt has some of the most exciting projects lined up in her kitty. She is juggling between projects including Mahesh Bhatt in Sadak 2, Karan Johar's Takht and she will be next seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Inshallah opposite Salman Khan.

In a recent interview, Alia Bhatt was quizzed on how she felt on knowing that she'll be working with Salman Khan. Reacting to the same, she said,

"I literally remember myself jumping. I was not in town, I was out of the country and I was doing something and I got a call and I was like.. literally I ran to the corner and I jumped up and down for 5 minutes because I was so excited," Alia told an entertainment portal.

Inshallah will be Salman and Alia's first film together and it'll be Bhansali and Salman's fourth collaboration after Khamoshi, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Saawariya.

A lot of negative reactions came her way because of the vast age-difference. Alia said,

"I didn’t get any criticism. I think I got a lot of excitement. I think speculation is also a form of excitement in a way and why shouldn’t there be speculation. There should be and at least I am not bothered by that and I don’t think Salman or Bhansali sir are bothered. I think this is a filmmaker who has given us very good films, he is someone who we all are very fond of and I think we should just trust him with his vision."

Currently Alia Bhatt is promoting her recently released 'The Prada Song' that was released on August 13, 2019.
