As a doting mother, Alia Bhatt is super cautious when it comes to her little one, Raha. Recently, the actress took a drastic step by removing all photos of her daughter from her Instagram account. But that’s not all – Alia has also been limiting Raha’s screen time, and the reason behind this decision is quite interesting. In a candid interview, Alia drew a comparison between her own childhood and Raha’s, revealing how she was glued to the TV as a kid, whereas Raha isn’t even allowed to watch an iPad.
Alia fondly remembers her childhood days when she would spend hours watching TV, and it was something she thoroughly enjoyed. However, as a mother, she’s now more mindful of Raha’s screen time, even when it comes to watching music videos on TV. This got us wondering – what prompted Alia to take such a stance? The answer lies in her conversation with her mother, Soni Razdan. When Alia discussed her concerns with her mom, Soni couldn’t help but question her decision, saying, “Oh god, was I not a good mother? I let you watch TV all the time!” Alia promptly reassured her, explaining that times have changed and that TV was a novelty back then.
The actress expressed her gratitude towards her mother for not restricting her TV time, which, according to Alia, helped her develop her imagination and pursue her dreams. Now, as a mother herself, Alia is making conscious choices for Raha, who’s just two years old. Although Raha has watched a few songs from her parents’ films, she’s still too young to understand the concept of movies. Interestingly, whenever Raha watches any film, she exclaims, “Mommy and Daddy are in this!” It’s clear that Ranbir and Alia, who tied the knot in 2022 and became parents the same year, are adored by their little bundle of joy.
On the professional front, Alia was last seen in the movie ‘Jigra’, and her upcoming films include ‘Alpha’ and ‘Love and War’. As we wait to see her sizzle on the big screen again, it’s heartwarming to see her prioritize her role as a mother and make thoughtful decisions for Raha’s upbringing. With Alia’s dedication to her craft and her devotion to her family, it’s no wonder she’s winning hearts both on and off screen.
