In the recent conversation with ‘Devara ka Jigra,’ something beautiful went unnoticed. In the conversation with Alia, Karan Johar and jr. NTR Alia revealed where her baby’s name was selected. Alia Bhatt disclosed that she was visiting her RRR co-star Jr. NTR’s Hyderabad house for the first time. And that is where she and Ranbir Kapoor discussed names for their future child. Further, the global star, Jr NTR reveals he ‘wished’ for Alia Bhatt’s daughter’s name.
SS Rajamouli’s 2022 blockbuster historical epic RRR starred Jr. NTR and Alia Bhatt together, but their relationship is also highly intimate. The first time Alia and her husband Ranbir Kapoor considered names for their soon-to-be child, they were at Jr. NTR’s Hyderabad house, Alia disclosed in a recent conversation with the actor and director Karan Johar.
Jr NTR ‘wished’ for Alia Bhatt’s daughter’s name
“This love started with Taarak very graciously coming to the Brahmastra press meet in Hyderabad. I remember I was fully pregnant at that time. He said, ‘Ya ya, we do the event, then after that, you all have to come to my house for dinner.’ And we had such a warm evening on that terrace, chatting. That was the first time we actually discussed possible baby names in front of everyone else. Ranbir said, ‘If it’s a girl, it’ll be this. If it’s a boy, it’ll be this,’” stated Alia. To which Jr NTR added, “I started praying, I wish it was Raha. And finally, there she is (laughs).”
NTR and Alia also discussed how having children affected them as professionals. NTR claimed that after his son Abhay was born, he gave up on his celebrity status. He looked for a creative outlet, instead that would make being apart from his son worthwhile. Alia added that while actresses have a tendency to become self-obsessed, having Raha altered her as a person and made her invest in another individual. She also said her next release Jigra, about a sister protecting her brother at any cost, came at an opportune time when she was feeling extremely protective of her newborn daughter.
