Alia Bhatt's fans have one more reason to celebrate. The official Instagram handle of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences shared a video featuring the actress' popular song Ghar More Pardesiya from the film Kalank (2019) on Thursday. Now, they have also showered praise on the actress. For the unversed, the song was sung by Shreya Ghoshal. The film produced by Karan Johar also stars Varun Dhawan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sonakshi Sinha and Madhuri Dixit. The caption read, "Alia Bhatt performing Ghar More Pardesiya (vocals by Shreya Ghoshal with Vaishali Mhade) from the film Kalank. Directed by Abhishek Varman; Starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Madhuri Dixit, Sanjay Dutt and Sonakshi Sinha; Song composed by Pritam Chakraborty; Lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya."
In the comments section of the post, one fan commented, "Alia Bhatt's performance has been spectacular in every movie she's done." The Academy responded, "Out of all the languages you could've spoken, you chose to speak facts.”
Earlier this year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences shared a video from the 2015 epic historical romance, Bajirao Mastani on their Instagram handle. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film boasted a stellar cast including Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra in leading roles. Adapted from Nagnath S. Inamdar's Marathi novel Rau, Bajirao Mastani intricately woven the tale of Maratha Peshwa Bajirao I (1700–1740) and his second wife, Mastani. The shared clip featured Deepika Padukone gracefully dancing to the enchanting tune of Deewani Mastani from the film. The caption accompanying the post by the Academy Awards, colloquially known as the Oscars, read, "Deepika Padukone performing "Deewani Mastani" (sung by Shreya Ghoshal) from the movie Bajirao Mastani. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Starring Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra Jonas."
