Alia Bhatt revealed that her three-year-old daughter Raha, not her or Ranbir Kapoor, is the real “Alpha-Animal” at home. Calling Raha a “leader and a thinker,” Alia shared cute anecdotes about her daughter’s personality. Meanwhile, Alia’s film Alpha, also starring Sharvari, Anil Kapoor, and Bobby Deol, releases on July 3. Even as Alia Bhatt gears up to portray a fierce spy in her upcoming film ‘Alpha’, she recently admitted that life away from the camera looks quite different. Speaking about her home life, the actress confessed that the title of family’s real “Alpha” doesn’t actually belong to her. She also laughed at how her husband, Ranbir Kapoor, is far from his fierce on-screen Animal persona when it comes to their household.
Alia Bhatt asked who the real ‘Alpha-Animal’ is
Appearing on YouTuber MyMissAnand’s channel while busy promoting her film, Alia was put on the spot about whether she was the household’s true “Alpha” while Ranbir Kapoor took on the role of the family’s “Animal” — a witty reference to her upcoming spy thriller and her husband’s blockbuster hit with Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The chat soon veered toward who actually rules the roost at home, setting Alia up perfectly to name the family’s real boss. When asked who the genuine ‘Alpha-Animal’ of the house is, Alia answered instantly, “Raha!”.
Alia Bhatt reveals daughter Raha runs the household
Alia disclosed that the actual head of the Kapoor household is none other than their three-year-old daughter, Raha. She explained that even though Raha sees her mother as “cool,” the little girl really runs the show at home. Alia further narrated a sweet incident where Raha had a reaction to spotting her mother in pyjamas around the house. She said, “Raha is the actual Animal and Alpha at home. She is the Gen Alpha. I receive a lot of compliments from her. And I love that… One day, I decided to wear jeans and sit at home. She asked, ‘Where are you going?’ I said I can’t sit in nightclothes at home. She said ‘No, you don’t sit like this.'”
Alia Bhatt calls daughter Raha a ‘leader and a thinker’
The couple frequently gush about their daughter at public events and in interviews. Most recently, at News18 India’s event in Delhi, Alia described Raha as a “leader and a thinker.” She said, “She is also meant for the stage, if I can say so myself. She loves many things, I would say. Abhi woh sports mein bhi bahut interested hai. She has a keen interest in sports and activities. Woh filmy bhi bahut hai, gaane bhi achhe se sunti hai. She wants to dance. She picks up steps very fast. So my little girl is still growing and observing and putting her hand into different things, whether it’s art, dance or sports. But she’s a leader and a thinker in her own way.”
