Alia Bhatt is currently making it to the headlines with the wedding with her beau Ranbir Kapoor. A picture has been going viral online, where Pooja Bhatt was seen with Mahesh Bhatt inside the car, as the two were heading for Alia’s Mehendi ceremony. Mahesh was caught emotional in front of the shutterbugs, while Pooja was proud, flaunting her mehendi design to the paparazzies.

Not many know that there have been some bizarre rumours boiling in the country, that Alia Bhatt is Pooja Bhatt and Mahesh Bhatt’s daughter. The rumour sparked after Mahesh Bhatt and Pooja Bhatt’s controversial magazine cover got out, and that when Mahesh Bhatt said, “If Pooja wasn’t my daughter, I’d love to marry her” with that, the rumour that Alia is daughter of the two got sparked all across.

Later when Alia was at Koffee With Karan show to promote her film Soty along with Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra, she was asked to tell the worst rumour she ever heard about herself, to this Alia said, “That I’m the daughter of Mahesh Bhatt and Pooja Bhatt.”

While promoting 2 States, the actress said, “I was asked a question about my father’s second marriage and I said it’s not something that has affected me as a child or probably I never gave importance to it. The next thing I see is it’s written that I am Pooja and Mahesh Bhatt’s daughter. It’s ridiculous! I think the person who wrote this should get his brains diagnosed; I feel sorry for him,” As quoted by Times Now.
