Alia Bhatt's Instagram posts are both entertaining and enlightening. Her latest one is no other exception. With the light falling on her face and the actress gorgeously posing for the camera, fans and friends couldn't help but gasp and be in awe. But it was the inspirational quote in the background that nearly stole the show.
Have a look and do read what was written behind:

The actress is also a producer now and will be co-producing and acting in her maiden production called âDarlings'. The name of her company is Eternal Sunshine and it has partnered with Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies for this dark comedy that also stars Vijay Varma and Shefali Shah. Apart from this, there's SS Rajamouli's opus âRRR', also starring Junior NTR, Ram Charan, and Ajay Devgn.
But the one film everyone seems to be waiting for with bated breaths is Ayan Mukerji's three-part Superhero drama âBrahmastra'. It unites her for the first time with Ranbir Kapoor and this ambitious project also has names like Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna, Dimple Kapadia, and Mouni Roy in its ensemble. Earlier titled âDragon', it was slated for a December 4, 2020 release before the Coronavirus pandemic played spoilsport.
There's Sanjay Leela Bhansali's âGangubai Kathiawadi' too, of course. And then the road movie with Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif directed by Farhan Akhtar, titled âJee Le Zaraa'. What went behind bringing the three on board? Jonas revealed herself in her latest Instagram post.
She wrote- "Let's rewind, to me musing about wanting to do another Hindi movie ASAP, on an unusually rainy night in Mumbai in Nov 2019. But it had to be the right one - different, cool, never been done before⦠I thought. The idea grew into a movie helmed by an all-female cast. There are not enough Hindi movies that are female multi-starrers."
She added, "This led to an impulsive phone call⦠to my 2 real friends about this idea that involved 3 on-screen girlfriends. A celebration of friendship we called it!! Katrina, Alia, and I enthusiastically met in February 2020 (as seen in this picture), just before the world shut down, to discuss who we could trust to bring this vision to life for us and our choice was unanimous⦠Farhan and Ritesh, Zoya and Reema. We had all worked with @excelmovies and @tigerbabyfilms individually so this seemed perfect. It just so happened that Farhan was working on a female road trip movie at the same time! Talk about all the stars aligning!!" [SIC]
