Actress Alia Bhatt tells her father and filmmaker Mahesh
Bhatt is possessive about her, but adds that he has taken her on-screen kissing
with Arjun Kapoor in the upcoming movie "2 States" practically.
"Like every father, who don't want their daughters to
get married, even my father is the same," Alia told in a group interview.
"Recently, my father told us (Alia and her sister
Shaheen) you all can't go anywhere, I will lock you up in a room. He is honest
and blunt about the fact that he doesn't want us to get married. He is not
saying just like that, he means it. He is very possessive and he doesn't want
me to get married. If my sister's boyfriends get me some present, he would say
- even I can get presents, I will get you two," she further added.
Presently, the actress is looking forward to her upcoming movie
"2 States".
She has a kissing scene in the film and when asked about her
"possessive" father's reaction on the same, she told, "But he
knows I am acting Â…but, if I kiss my boyfriend in front of him, he will slap
me.
"It's in the scene and I am not doing it to irritate
him. It's a family film and the scene is just for three seconds."
Directed by Abhishek Verman, "2 States" is an
adaptation of Chetan Bhagat's bestseller of the same name and the actress has
read the book three times.
She told, "I have to be as natural as possible. I read
the book three times before we started shooting."
Alia tells that when she read the book for the first time,
she felt it could be made into a good movie.
"I knew Arjun was on board… but I never thought I will
be part of the film. I got a call for a look test and the point being that I
should look good with Arjun. I was hoping it comes to me and it did. It's a big
achievement for me," she told.
The actress, who garnered rave reviews for her performance
in her last release "Highway", tells there was a reason behind doing
"2 States".
"After 'Highway' I wanted people to say I am an actor
and that I am not here to be a star. I would not like to be five or six films
old Â…so I want to make sure I am an actor," she told.
