Alia is one of the lovliest actress of Bollywood. Currently, she is on her maternity leave as she welcomed her baby girl, Raha with Ranbir Kapoor. 

In an interview, Alia talked about her parents' marriage and said it is a result of infidelity. She said, “My father met my mother because he had an extramarital affair. I am not as black and white about life; sometimes in life, things happen for a reason. Of course, you would not want to propagate infidelity and I don’t propagate it, but I understand the nature of human — it’s not always that easy and it is something that’s prevalent.”

Mahesh Bhatt and Soni were secretly dating before getting married in 1986. Before meeting Soni the filmmaker was married ti Kiran Bhatt.  Mahesh also had an affair with yesteryear actor Parveen Babi.

After the interview was released, some started lashing on Mahesh Bhatt for cheating on Kiran while some lauded Alia for having a mature outlook towards love and marriage. “Even if you end a relationship you already have cheated as you are emotionally invested in someone else. It won’t lessen the pain. Cheating is bad but I agree with what she said. It’s a mature way of dealing with her emotions,” whereas yet another person wrote, “Exactly. I see Alia’s point of view.”
