I have no experience about films and acting: Alia Bhatt

Alia Bhatt, who will be seen making her début with the much expected film, Student Of The Year. The actress who is just 19, is also the daughter of producer Mahesh Bhatt. The cute actress feels that age dose not matter when it comes to acting.

In an interview, ALia was talking about how she has always dreamt of becoming an actress. She told, “There are actresses who started working at a very young age. Like my sister (Pooja Bhatt) started working when she was 17. So age doesn’t matter.”

“I had decided to become an actress when I was much younger. It was a conscious decision. I just didn’t know it would happen as soon as I finish my college,” Alia told.

The young debutante also added that she hadn’t taken any training in acting for the auditions of the film.

Alia told, “I have no experience about films and acting. I have not done any training. So my whole stint has been a learning experience. I didn’t even know the ‘A’ of acting.”

“As I had no training, it was a very new experience for me. For the first few days I was a bit nervous and would keep to myself but then eventually we all opened up and it was a lot of fun. But I must say the production house (Dharma Productions) made me feel very comfortable,” Alia told.

Student Of The Year will hit screens on October 19. The film also stars model, Siddharth Malhotra and director David Dhawan’s son, Varun Dhawan.

Varun Dhawan fed on mainstream Bollywood films and son of reputed director David Dhawan, is the third newbie to debut in Karan Johar’s upcoming film "Student of the year". He signed in the film’s contract with the other newbies Alia Bhatt and Siddharth Malhotra. He and his brother Rohit Dhawan directed the movie "Desi Boyz". However this youngster’s parents David ji and Lali did not want him to be in movies unless he completes his education. He was sent off to Manchester to earn a degree in business management.

But luck had it, he flew from Manchester and landed in Karan Johar’s office and expressed his wish to assist Kjo in "My Name Is Khan". One fine day, Kjo looked at him through the camera lens and found Varun had the face for camera. Karan recalled the incident when one day Farah Khan came down on the sets of MNIK and was surprised to see such good looking assistants of Karan, Siddharth and Varun.

Varun has done several acting workshops and he signed in for SOTY in the same week when Siddharth and Alia were also signed in. Karan personally took several acting workshops for the trio in his flat. And as Karan determined to promote fresh talents instead of casting big stars as he always did, the trios were rewarded by offering them roles in the movie.
