Alia Bhatt is a British actress of Indian descent who predominantly works in Hindi films. As a child, she played a minor role in her father Mahesh Bhatt's production Sangharsh (1999), as the younger version of star Preity Zinta's character.[1][2] In 2012, Bhatt had her first lead role in Karan Johar's teen film Student of the Year, but her performance in it was not well received.[3] Two years later, she gained praise for playing a kidnapping victim in the drama Highway (2014), winning the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress.[3][4] In the same year, her starring roles in the commercially successful romances 2 States and Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, both produced under Johar's studio Dharma Productions, established her as a leading actress.[5][6][7] She also sang the single "Samjhawan Unplugged" for the latter film's soundtrack.[8]

In Bhatt's three film releases of 2016—Kapoor & Sons, Dear Zindagi, and Udta Punjab—she played young women in troubling circumstances.[9] Her performance in the last of these won her the Filmfare Award for Best Actress.[10] Following another romantic role in Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017), she played a spy in the thriller Raazi (2018) and a volatile girlfriend in the musical drama Gully Boy (2019). She won two more Best Actress awards at Filmfare for the latter two.[11][12] This was followed by two poorly received films, Kalank (2019) and Sadak 2 (2020).[13] Bhatt gained further success in 2022 with a brief role in the Telugu period film RRR, and starring roles in the fantasy film Brahmāstra: Part One – Shiva and biopic Gangubai Kathiawadi, in which she starred as the titular prostitute; all three rank among the highest-grossing Indian films of the year.[14] She won the National Film Award for Best Actress and her fourth Best Actress award at Filmfare for the last of these.[15][16] She also produced and starred in the Netflix black comedy Darlings under her company Eternal Sunshine Productions, for which she received a Filmfare OTT Award.[14][17]

In 2023, Bhatt starred opposite Ranveer Singh in Johar's romantic comedy Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of the year, and expanded to American cinema with the Netflix action film Heart of Stone.[18][19] The former won her a record-tying fifth Best Actress award at Filmfare.[20][21]
