She added, “Of course, I am young, but why does that have to change anything? Why does having a family or a child have to change my professional life? They are two completely different things. I would continue to and prefer to lead by example and action as opposed to giving any attention to the nonsensical things.”

The Raazi actress also said that a lot of decisions that she has made in her life is singular, and not in any relation to anyone, adding, “You don’t plan great things, they just happen.”

She wants to follow her heart and go with her instinct and gut and that’s what she has done through her professional and personal life.

Alia was in London shooting for her Hollywood film Heart of Stone with Gal Gadot when she announced the good news. After few days of her pregnancy announcement, she wrapped up the shoot and returned to Mumbai.
