"Alia is one of those performers whos extremely talented," said Churni Ganguly
Actress Churni Ganguly, who has many critically acclaimed movies to her credit in the Bengali film industry, is looking forward to the release of filmmaker Karan Johar's upcoming directorial Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. Ahead of the big day, Churni Ganguly spoke to News18 and expressed her joy for all the love that is coming her way for the film. Among other things, the Bengali actress also spoke about Alia Bhatt, who plays her daughter Rani in the film, therefore dismissing trolls who often call the Gangubai Kathiawadi star a product of nepotism. Praising Alia Bhatt for her acting prowess, Churni Ganguly said, "Alia is one of those performers who's extremely talented."
Putting an end to the nepotism debate, the actress noted, "People speak about nepotism. There's so much being said. I think nepotism only becomes relevant if the actor isn't up to the mark and lacks talent. But that's not the case with Alia.”
Heaping praises on Alia for her portrayal of Rani Chatterjee in the film, the Drishtikone actor said, "She has proved so film after film. She gets into the skin of her roles just like that. She brings life to a role that she plays. She did the same even in this film. We improvised a lot in some of our scenes and a lot of that came from Alia as well.”
