Alia Bhatt wins Filmfare OTT Awards 2023 Web Original Film (Female) for her Netflix debut Darlings.
At the Filmfare OTT Awards 2023 last night, Alia Bhatt was honoured with the Best Actor, Web Original Film (Female) for her Netflix debut Darlings.
In the midst of walking up to the stage to receive her award for Darlings, which she co-produced with Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, she expressed her gratitude to her Dear Zindagi co-star for reposing faith and believing in her. In her acceptance speech, Alia Bhatt said that she would firstly start off by feeling indebted to Shah Rukh Khan for giving her the first opportunity to produce a film.
She remembers Shah Rukh calling her and saying, usually he doesn’t produce films with other but he will do it with her because he loves her as a person and actress.’ So thanked him for that, adding that if it wasn’t for him.this wouldn’t have been possible.
Meanwhile, Alia Bhatt, who was accompanied by her sister Shaheen at the event, summarized her experience in a lovely post. She captioned it, “Filmfare night.” In a set of pictures shared, we see her holding her award, posing with her sister Shaheen, Darlings director Jasmeet K Reen and co-star Vijay Varma. For the event, Alia Bhatt slipped into a black gown and looked effortlessly chic.
For the unversed, Alia Bhatt and Shah Rukh Khan had worked together in the 2016 film Dear Zindagi. But the Badshah of
Bollywood continues to have a lasting presence in Alia Bhatt’s life. In the midst of the press meet for Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, Alia Bhatt revealed she took lessons on how to lip-sync for a song from Shah Rukh Khan after Karan Johar suggested she do so.
However, Alia Bhatt wanted to talk to him over the phone which eventually turned out to be a full-fledged class at Shah Rukh Khan’s place. Alia Bhatt was not alone as Suhana Khan also accompanied her for the lip-sync tutorial.
She added that she was very nervous and she doesn’t know whether it’s because she was going back to shoot after a couple of months… First time doing a proper full lip-sync song after Ishq wala love.
There’s an inherent kind of nervousness that she kind of, can do something more to do better. She was discussing with Karan (Johar) and he said, ‘Why don’t you call Shah Rukh? May be he can give some tips. She called him up to talk over the phone because no one can lipsync like him.
Alia Bhatt continued and shared what Shah Rukh told him over the phone. “He said, ‘ You can come to my place. Suhana also wants to learn this, so dono ko ek sath tuition karenge. Come with your song. He will give tuition to both of you. She went to his place, was there two-three hours and sang an entire song. There’s a portion which was going very fast, and she was very tense. Then he made her download some apps, bar bar karo… by the end of the day, he also learnt the song.”
Alia complimented Shah Rukh Khan with these words, “It shows he is so generous, such a big-hearted person, always willing to help you, there for you. Whether this experience helped me in this movie or not,
She knows for sure, this experience is irreplaceable in her life.
Apart the Gauri Shinde Film, Alia Bhatt and Shah Rukh Khan also came together for one episode of Koffee With Karan.
