2 Years of Gully Boy: When Alia Bhatt attended workshops for the first time

In an interview with me just after the release of Gully Boy Alia had said, “Honestly I don’t have to be at the centre of every film I do. That would be vain and boring. I’d rather be in films that are exciting and challenging to me as an actor than just think about my own role. In Raazi I was the central character. In Gangubai Kathiawadi I am again the central character. But in Udta Punjab and Gully Boy I am not. It was always Ranveer Singh as the central character. And I’m quite okay with that. I am very happy with my role.”

Alia also spoke to me about how excited she was to work with Zoya Akhtar. “My director Zoya Akhtar guided me through the role. For the first time in my career I did an acting workshop. I had never done a workshop before. Not even for Raazi.”

Alia says doing Gully Boy was fun. “It was like going to school. Within three days I was talking, walking behaving like Safeena. I was like, ‘Wow this is a load off my shoulder!’ I now realize that if I’ve a grip on my character beforehand, going on the set and playing the role becomes so much easier. I am definitely going to recommend doing workshops with my other directors. Of course every director has his or her own process. But I will definitely explore character-finding methods with other directors.”

Alia kept her word. She diligently attended acting workshops before beginning work on Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi. And yes, this time she is the central character, present in almost every frame of the film.
