Actor Alia Bhatt is very protective of her daughter Raha Kapoor. She and Ranbir Kapoor have ensured her face is not revealed and is not plastered on any social media sites. In fact, they have even requested the media to not click photos of them when they are with their daughter. However, there was one time when her face was revealed in public and this broke her down. Recalling the incident on the latest episode of Koffee With Karan season 8, Alia Bhatt revealed that she broke down while adding that she didn’t want her daughter to be papped at this age.
Alia Bhatt narrates the incident about her daughter Raha
“Basically, I felt like a picture came out of hers and it was our schedule in Kashmir. It was a very very difficult schedule for me because it was my first shooting after giving birth. No matter what anybody says, it takes really long for your body to bounce back. I still feel like there have been, and I am still going through some changes. I was not sleeping at night, I was feeding, I was rushing in between shoots and stuff. So, I remember calling Ranbir up and saying, ‘I’m finding it very difficult’. He pushed his work and said do not worry,’ I’m going to come pick her up, I have pushed my work. She will be with me’, Alia said.
“And it was really relaxing for me. But also, it was the first time I was separating from her. I was feeling very guilty and the guilt carried on. It was just one and a half days later that I travelled back and saw a photo where the side of her face was kind of visible. I just broke down and I realised I was breaking down not because I didn’t want people to see her face. We are proud of our baby, but it was just too many emotions put together and I’m so protective of my loved ones. I realised I was just exhausted and overwhelmed at that time,” the Brahmastra actor said.
When asked about pap culture, Alia mentioned, “I don’t feel like she needs to be papped. She is not even a year old. I have been very respectful towards the paps and the press.” Bhatt feels that her daughter shouldn’t be the content piece on Instagram.
Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s daughter Raha turned a year old on November 1.
