Im sure she did excellent. But dang look at the comparison :s. I feel like in bwood nepotism runs super deep so they hype them up cause THEY want them to succeed. Outsiders arent encouraged as much sadly.

Stole the words outta my mouth buddy..
outsiders suffer a lot. .
even kjo does it...they only want their baby dolls n namby pamby cerelac-feed boys to succeed. .
she may be very good. ..but their r many more names one could add to the list 😡

The comment was so absurd coming from Javed akhtar.. 

meh

this is way too much..😳

She not just met but clicked a pic with them in a bathrobe?? And posted it online...

Are all the Bhatt's mentally ill??

   Milestones -Nargis in Mother India Meena kumari in saheb bibi.. Nutan in BANDANI Shabana in Arth and now Alia Bhatt in Highway.

I guess I will the only one apart from UsernameLoading who will agree to what he tweeted. But honestly, I feel her performance is beyond comparison. Her role might look ordinary but still she is extra ordinary in the film.

I had never expected a young girl like Alia in today's era, where the youngsters play safe and take up glam roles, to take up such a film after SOTY. And I don't care what people think about my comparison now but after watching this film, I will have to say that Alia is a MUCH better actor than Madhuri Dixit, Priyanka Chopra,  Kareena Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai. I have always seen these actors giving monologues on screen in many of their films and every single monologue of theirs look like they are in a play- the dialogue delivery is so dramatic.
But in this film, where half of Alia's dialogues are monologues- I really couldn't believe that I was watching Alia Bhatt mouthing monologues so naturally. Not even for a second did I feel like she is performing at a play like the other actors I mentioned.


And when Vidya can be called the female Aamir Khan of the film industry, Madhuri can be called the Diva, Queen, blah blah..why can't Alia be called the next Nutan or Meena Kumari? Anyways if you see, he has compared Alia with the actresses who played roles similar to Veera- strong yet they needed a support to show their strength.

I like the current phase of Bollywood. Every year I seem to have a new favorite actor. I love it more when these masala heroines or non actors deliver a performance which suddenly surprises you. Till 2013 it  was Sonakshi for me. Now it's getting replaced by Alia Bhatt till I see something as amazing as Veera Tripathi in 2014! Like UsernameLoading said, one of the best performances I have seen in the recent years. Miles ahead of the stuff the other older actors do!

And again like UsernameLoading said, you might just disagree with whatever I said :)

I remember posting this about Alia when I watched SOTY

I will have to take back my words now!😊
Now I just hope that Alia doesn't turn out to be another Sonakshi Sinha in the making and starts delivering crap after a film like Lootera.

YES! And she was beyond brilliant in the scene. One of the most powerful monologues I have seen.
