Karan Johar was drawn in by her audition, as well as her energetic dance performance to the song “Bahara” from I Hate Luv Stories. He recognized Alia’s spark and referred to her as his “new Kareena.” Check out the video below that is resurfacing again on internet.
Alia humbly stated in an interview that she did not want her film background to pave an easy path for her.
She acknowledged her good fortune among the 500 auditionees and credited her “filminess” with impressing Karan Johar. The renowned filmmaker revealed that Alia stood out among the 400 actors who auditioned for her role due to her X factor and suitability for the film.
