I don't think I am a star: Alia Bhatt
Actress Alia Bhatt doesn't feel like a star despite being in news for her line up of films and brand endorsements
Post her debut film 'Student Of The Year', Alia will next be seen in Imtiaz Ali's 'Highway', Karan Johar's '2 States' and a film with Varun Dhawan.
"I don't have much acting experience. I am not a star. I am learning... there is a long way to go. As of now I am dependent on my directors," she told PTI. Alia was nervous before shooting for 'Highway', an intense road movie, as 'Student Of The Year' was a light hearted film. She says her 'Highway' co-star Randeep Hooda helped her. "He is a great actor and helped me a lot, he made me feel comfortable.
Though he is senior, he is as young as I am. It is just a perception that he is older. Rather, there were times when I was acting older and saying don't do this or that," she said.
Alia, who would be seen opposite Arjun Kapoor in '2 States', finds him extremely supportive. "He is a great actor, I loved him in 'Ishaqzaade'. He is an amazing person.

Honoured to work with the Kapoor clan: Pallavi Sharda
The actress, who has done bit roles in films like "My Name Is Khan", "Heroine" among others, said she never anticipated that her hard work would pay off in a mainstream launch opposite such big names from Bollywood.
"The grace and humility of the entire Kapoor family and the fact that they never made me feel new or junior was admirable. I was lucky enough not only to act alongside them but also to dance with them in an upbeat Bhangra number called 'Hand Uthake Nache'," Sharda said.
Mahatma Gandhi believed cinema to be 'evil'
Posted on Oct 02, 2013 at 01:46pm
New Delhi: Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, the father of the nation, was known for his use of media in furthering the causes he believed in, but during his times, cinema was not as evolved as now. Probably this was the reason behind his reservations against cinema as a medium.
Gandhiji gave his opinion about cinema in an interview with the Indian Cinematograph Committee, "Even if I was so minded, I should be unfit to answer your questionnaire, as I have never been to a cinema. But even to an outsider, the evil that it has done and is doing is patent. The good, if it has done any at all, remains to be proved."
As per the historians' accounts, Gandhiji saw just one film in his life and that was 'Ram Rajya' which was made in 1943.

Besharam: Be bold, brave and boisterous with Ranbir Kapoor,Releasing today
New Delhi: With no other big films releasing this Friday, Abhinav Kashyap's 'Besharam' has a clean week as far as competition goes. The Ranbir Kapoor-starrer is hitting the theatres on October 2.
The film will be a litmus test for both actor Ranbir after superhit 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' and Kashyap post 'Dabangg'.
"Our expectations are huge. We have made a good film and have promoted it well," Kahsyap told IANS.
With each film, Ranbir Kapoor is inching closer to the mighty Khans of the Hindi film industry.
The film, produced by Himanshu Mehra, Sanjeev Gupta and Reliance Entertainment, had a shooting budget of Rs 60 crore plus the cost of promotions, marketing and advertising.
"We have locked about 3,600 screens in India and 700 screens overseas," said the director.
Whether the audience will accept Ranbir in deglam role or not, will only be revealed once the movie releases.
"It is a big film and there is no other film releasing in the same week. We have to wait and watch how it unfolds and whether the audience likes it or not," trade analyst Taran Adarsh told IANS.
'Besharam' also stars Ranbir's actor-parents Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh. Actress Pallavi Sharda, a newcomer who hails from Australia, plays the female lead in the film.
Abhinav Kashyap is known for his masala entertainer 'Dabangg', while his elder brother and filmmaker Anurag Kashyap's forte is parallel cinema. And the 'Dabangg' director says they want to rule different areas of Bollywood.
"When Anurag will get into masala films, then probably I will think of making his kind of cinema. We both brothers want to rule different areas of Bollywood," Abhinay said in an interview.
"We are mafias. We don't operate in each other's area," he added jokingly.
Ranbir Kapoor has showcased his flexible dancing skills in many of his songs, but for his forthcoming film 'Besharam', he went totally desi for a bhangra number.
