Alia Bhatt is surely one of the most talented and versatile actors in Bollywood. She has created a niche for herself through remarkable performances. Last year, the actress was awarded a national award for her film Gangubai Kathiawadi. And now recently she was once again honoured with an award at a Saudi Arabia event.

Accepting the award, she said as mentioned in Hindustan Times, “It’s a privilege to be here in this nation, the nation that is currently doing so much to unite us all and bring us all under one roof in the name of cinema. It doesn’t happen very often where countless talents from the West, and East come together under one roof and celebrate each other. So thank you for making this happen."

“It’s truly an extraordinary night. I’m obsessed with movies, it’s all I know. I’ve said this before, I think when I was born, I came out on ‘Lights, camera, action’. That’s how much cinema means to me. One of the things, if we are talking about joy, one of the greatest things in our lives is love. So tonight when I go back home, I take back with me the love of the movies and the love that I felt here in Riyadh. So thank you so much, and here’s to the magic of movies," she added.
