You cannot ask me about my sister’s personal life because I ain’t telling, darling!” When further probed how she tackles such speculations and stories about her baby sister, Alia, Pooja retorted, “Like I took rumours about me. What was true didn’t bother me. What was not true didn’t bother me. And she is a Bhatt after all, and a much-improved Bhatt in that sense.”

Pooja Bhatt went on to say, “I think that this is her time in the sun. We should just let that young girl be and enjoy her life because I think she is doing her job of entertaining India and the world really well. So, what she does or does not do in her personal life is really her problem. How she chooses to lead her life is her problem. My father and me have a different approach to it. She has a different approach to it. So, I think we should just let people be who they are.” (Also Read: Ranbir Kapoor's Former Girlfriend, Deepika Padukone Already Knew That He Is Dating Alia Bhatt)

Confirming his relationship with his crush, Alia, Ranbir admitted to GQ, “It’s really new right now, and I don’t want to overspeak. It needs time to breathe and it needs space. As an actor, as a person, Alia is- what’s the right word- flowing right now. When I see her work, when I see her act, even in life, what she gives is something that I’m aspiring to for myself.”

The Sanju actor further revealed how it feels to be in love again, “It always comes with a lot of excitement. It’s a new person, it comes with new beats. Old tricks become new tricks again- you know, being charming and romantic, all of that. I think I’m more balanced today. I value relationships more. I can appreciate hurt and what it does to a person much more than I could a couple years back.”
