Alia Bhatt
For decades, Bollywood has been characterised by actresses starting out as friends, and turning bitter rivals. As a result, gossip mills have thrived on catfights and competition. But now, it's believed that these are a thing of the past because the younger crop of actresses go all out to maintain friendships. Case in point is the affection Alia Bhatt has for Shraddha Kapoor. Both the divas come from filmi families and started their careers around the same time. They are often pitted against each other in press.
