One of the most well-known actors in Indian cinema nowadays is Alia Bhatt. She has built a reputation for herself through her work both domestically and internationally. The 30-year-old is included in TIME's selection of the "100 most influential people of 2024."
Director of "Heart of Stone," Tom Harper, who collaborated with Alia on her first movie, wrote an article in the magazine praising her as a "truly international star".
"There is a grace to the way she goes about her work: focused, open to ideas, and willing to take creative risks. One of my favourite moments in the film came from an improvisation at the end of a take where she took the emotional thread and ran with it," Tom wrote.
Reacting to it, Alia took to her Instagram and wrote, "Honoured to be a part of the #TIME100 @time Thank you dearest #TomHarper for your kind kind words."
Last year, Alia bagged several important awards including first National Film Award for her performance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's directorial 'Gangubai Kathiawadi'. In 2023, she also made her Hollywood debut with 'Heart of Stone'.
Indian-origin actor Dev Patel and wrestler Sakshi Malik also featured in the list.
