New Delhi: Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt made her mark on the global platform with her iconic look at the recently held Met Gala event in New York. Alia Bhatt cascaded in a hand embroidered floral saree by ace designer Sabyasachi, adhering to the theme 'Garden of Time.' The actress also left behind the likes of Kendall Jenner and Kim Kardashian to become the "Most Visible Attendee" on the Red Carpet.

During a recent interview with the popular magazine Harper's Bazaar India, Alia shared the names of people she takes inspiration from which also includes actress Aishwarya Rai and popular singer Taylor Swift.

Alia Bhatt on Aishwarya Rai being her inspiration

Alia was asked about the Indian and international cultural icons that inspire her work. Replying to the question, the actress said, "I admire Kate Winslet for her incredible range and resilience, and Taylor Swift, who turns every experience into heartfelt music. I feel inspired by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who chartered her own course and took her journey global when no one was even thinking about it. And, of course, Kareena Kapoor Khan who is iconic in every way, and Shreya Ghoshal whose voice just elevates every word and rhythm given to her. These women embrace their journeys with such élan and ease—that authenticity is what I aim to bring to my roles.”

Alia Bhatt on building a legacy

Talking about her preparation for the next few years in the industry, the actress said, "In 2024, I see myself continuing to push into new creative territories, aiming to engage with the audience on deeper levels. The goal has always been to challenge myself, to not be comfortable where I am, to dig deep within myself, to be able to contribute more to my characters. The legacy I hope to build is one of meaningful, memorable roles which not only entertain but also provoke thought and inspire change.”
