Alia Bhatt’s 32nd birthday celebrations are in full swing! The star, who marks her birthday on March 15, threw an intimate pre-birthday bash with the media in Mumbai. With her husband Ranbir Kapoor by her side, she cut a cake and shared it with the attendees.
Bhatt, the daughter of famed filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, has been a resident face in Bollywood for a while now. Since her debut in the 2012 film Student of the Year, the actress has been on a steady rise with films like 2 States, Dear Zindagi, Raazi, Gully Boy, and many others. But has all the pressure taken a toll on her?
The mother of one has been open about her struggles with her mental health, recently revealing that she was diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety. Speaking to the media, she said, “It is a daily work in progress... I go for therapy once a week which helps me clear my mind. I find myself in various moments where my emotions are getting the better of me”.
“They are kind of taking over perhaps the physical moment... in that time. It is not like I am someone deep into meditation or able to stick to any of those things. But sometimes, just being aware of your own internal processes and internal transitions that these things might trigger you or might make you feel a certain way, just knowing or acknowledging to yourself helps you get through the difficult moment. Of course, support definitely helps and talking it out helps,” she continued.
In an effort to instil healthy mental habits in her daughter Raha, Bhatt shared that she reads a book called Book of Emotions to her to help regulate and understand the “different sort of highs and lows a human can experience and how that is normal to feel that way," which serves as a reminded for the actress as well.
