The actress added, “So basically I really think it is the best twist but I have not liked watched it in… when did it release? 10 years ago? So I have not watched it after that.”
Alia Bhatt made many heads turn with her appearance at the recently held BAFTA Awards and greeted her fans and the media with a ‘Namaste.’ She even interacted with the press out there, but unfortunately, was trolled for one of her clips that went viral on social media. And she has broken her silence on the same.
Why was
Alia Bhatt trolled?
The actress told Diet Sabya, “Why is it being talked about so much? Is it because of my expression?”
The actress added, “So basically I really think it is the best twist but I have not liked watched it in… when did it release? 10 years ago? So I have not watched it after that. So when she was like, ‘that monologue,’ I was like ‘haan’ (yes) and I was going back in my head that oh ya, ‘that monologue, correct correct correct’.”
“I was like like ‘haan’ (yes) so I was like going back in time and I guess that’s what you saw. I am a cool girl. I am a sweet girl. But I could be… total… I mean I can be like… I am more sweet than I am cool. Actually, I don’t think I am cool. I am uncool girl, my sister would say that.”
Alia Bhatt’s Hindi moment at
BAFTA 2026
While presenting the award, Alia chose to begin her speech in Hindi, underscoring the global power of cinema beyond language barriers. Her greeting, “Namaskar”, immediately drew applause, setting the tone for a moment that many described as deeply moving and culturally significant.
She said, “Namaskar! Agla award ek aisi film ke liye hai, jo angrezi mein nahi hai. Don’t reach for the subtitles just yet. I was only saying in Hindi that the next award is for a film not in the English language. Because while film speaks in countless voices, what we always celebrate is the language of cinema. And that one we all speak fluently.”
