For the unversed, SRK’s name for Alia comes in reference to her and Ranbir Kapoor’s daughter Raha Kapoor, who was born last year.
Alia and Ranbir Kapoor tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in April 2022. Alia Bhatt announced she was pregnant in June 2022, and the couple welcomed Raha on November 6, last year.
Coming back to SRK and Alia Bhatt, besides working together in ‘Dear Zindagi’, they also collaborated for ‘Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva’. The 2022 fantasy adventure movie featured Alia in the lead alongside Ranbir, and Shah Rukh in an extended cameo.
In 2022, Alia Bhatt also marked her debut as a producer with Gauri Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment for ‘Darlings’. The Netflix film, directed by Jasmeet K Reen, also featured Vijay Varma and Shefali Shah. The film, which opened to good reviews, highlighted the issue of domestic violence against women.
