Mahesh Bhatt praises Arjun Kapoor over Alia in '2 States'!

Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who watched his daughter Alia Bhatt's third film "2 States", is happy to see her playing a different role. But it's her co-star Arjun Kapoor who stole the filmmaker's heart.

"'2 States' - Alia is fantastic in a startlingly different role. But it is Arjun who stole my heart and made me weep. He is a star! It's a winner," Mahesh wrote on Twitter Monday.

The movie, based on Chetan Bhagat's bestseller by the same name, revolves around a Punjabi boy, who falls in love with a Tamil girl. The regional and cultural clash that it leads to is what forms the rest of the tale.

It will hit theatres Friday. 

Developed mother-daughter relationship with Revathi, says Alia Bhatt!

Two-film old Alia Bhatt, who worked with actress-director Revathi in their upcoming movie "2 States", tells they share a strong bond akin to that of a mother and daughter.

"Towards the end of the film, I developed mother-daughter relationship with her (Revathi). The way she touched my face, I kind of felt that warmth with her. What also I realized is that while working with her I became a good actor.  What she brings to the table is not just the dialogues. She would bring much more... I felt like she was my mother. I could bring the emotions only because of her. She is a fantastic actor," Alia said.

Revathi plays Alia's mother in "2 States", adapted from Chetan Bagat's novel by the same name.

The "Highway" star is also fond of actress Kareena Kapoor and tells that she feels great when she is compared to the "Jab We Met" star.

"I can be flattered. I have done two films and people are comparing me with her. I don't think I am like her. I feel like there is only one Kareena Kapoor and that's her. I am her biggest fan. I am not trying to be like her but she is my biggest inspiration," told Alia.

Alia Bhatt wants to feature in a horror movie!

Actress Alia Bhatt, who made her Bollywood debut with a fun-loving, youth-oriented movie like "Student Of The Year", is game to feature in a horror movie. In fact, she tells she would love to be a part of the "Murder" or "Raaz" franchise in future. 

"In these thrillers and scary movies, it is very difficult to portray (the role), to always look scared... and you know, (be) in that tense zone. So, I would love to do a film (like that). If 'Murder 4' or 'Raaz 4' happens, I would love to do it," the 19-year-old told at a special screening of "Murder 3". 

Alia tells she is proud of her cousin Vishesh, who has made his debut as a director with "Murder 3", which released Feb 15.
