Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt are currently enjoying parenthood and celebrating the birth of their baby girl Raha Kapoor. The actors welcomed their first child together on November 6. Now, in a new interview, Alia talked about her pregnancy days and how she shot for her first Hollywood project Heart Of Stone - an action film - while she was pregnant.
Talking about the time when Alia was seen working day and night with the baby bump, the actor told a leading daily, “I don’t believe in limiting myself unless there’s some physical limitation. I was pregnant, so yes, there was scope for many limitations, as pregnancy is unpredictable. I decided to take each day as it comes and listen to my body. Of course, work is very important, but at that point, my baby and my health were my priority. From the very beginning, I told myself that only if I was comfortable, will I push myself. Touchwood, my pregnancy didn’t hold me back physically. Yes, the first few weeks were slightly difficult as I had major exhaustion and nausea, but at that time, I didn’t talk about it because you are not supposed to say anything for the first 12 weeks, right? That’s what everybody says, so I had to keep that information to myself, but I was listening to my body."
"If I needed to lie down between a shot, I would go take a nap in my van. I would try to get as much rest as possible, but you also have to meet your work commitments. Heart of Stone is my first Hollywood movie, which I signed in January 2022. I tried hard to work out that schedule, so I didn’t want to back off. I talked to the team and they assured me that they will take good care of me and it was great. I managed to shoot my first action film while I was pregnant! That is a story I will tell for years because it also makes you realise how much your body is capable of if you just put your mind to it,” she added and said she has immense respect for her body now.
On the work front, Alia will be next seen in Karan Johar's directorial comeback Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani.
