Here’s a Alia Bhatt Instagram, lookbook of her big milestone moments through the lens of her Instagram posts!

Gangubai Kathiawadi Promotions

The year started on a high note for the actress, with the release of her Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial slated in the second month itself. The Alia Bhatt Instagram lookbook, was a testament to her flawless promotional looks, which took aesthetic inspiration from her on-screen character itself. Refined saris, handwoven motifs, semi-sheer drapes and flowers in her bun- all served as proof of her effortlessly chic style. For the first look, Alia went the retro route and opted for an ivory organza silk saree, with an embellished blouse. The roses in her hair and the red lip to go with it were the perfect touch. We were in awe of this post, which was captioned “Aa Rahi Hai Gangu.”

One more post from the Alia Bhatt Instagram lookbook that’s definitely on our checklist of saree inspiration is the one that features her in a white delicate crepe sari, with a black stripe running across the borders.

So if you looked up Alia Bhatt Instagram throughout February, you found find some some stunning promotional numbers. She usurped a touch of personal style alongside references from her on screen persona, and thoughtfully curated looks that we vicariously followed through her social media.

Brahmastra Wrap-Up

Brahmastra was a big milestone for the actress, because not only was it her first film with then-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor but was also a big-budget VFX film that was bringing something new to Bollywood. Not only was it one of the most anticipated films of 2022, but its shooting had kept fans hooked for the past five years. And finally, after all the wait, we finally got the news on searching up Alia Bhatt Instagram in the last week of March, where she announced that the film schedule had been finally wrapped up.

She took to her Instagram and shared a Behind the Scenes picture from the shoot of the film, along with a picture of her, Ranbir and Ayan from when they visited Kashi Vishwanath Temple: “We started shooting in 2018. And now, finally, The filming of Brahmastra ( Part One ) comes to an end! I’ve been wanting to say this for such a long time… IT’S A WRAP! See you at the cinemas. 09.09.2022.” she captioned it excitedly.

The Big Day- Wedding, Mehendi, Afterparty

Definitely one of the biggest milestones of Alia’s personal journey was her wedding to long-time boyfriend and co-star Ranbir Kapoor. The most anticipated wedding of 2022 took place after months of rumours and speculation, and it was nothing short of magical. The couple tied the knot on the 14th of April, on the balcony of their Bandra home Vaastu in a close-knit and tranquil ceremony. Everything was perfectly coordinated from the matching gold and ivory ensembles to the floral decor, and friends and family were all smiles as the two tied the knot.

The fans got the news on looking up Alia Bhatt Instagram, where she shared a series of adorable pictures with a heartwarming caption that read-“Today, surrounded by our family and friends, at home, in our favourite spot – the balcony we’ve spent the last 5 years of our relationship – we got married. With so much already behind us, we can’t wait to build more memories together, memories that are full of love, laughter, comfortable silences, movie nights, silly fights, wine delights and Chinese bites. Thank You for all the love and light during this very momentous time in our lives. It has made this moment all the more special. Love, Ranbir and Alia.”

Post her wedding pictures, she also posted glimpses from other ceremonies including her glamorous afterparty and dreamy Mehendi. The couple looked beautiful in matching pink outfits for the Mehndi ceremony and Alia’s personalised lengha had multi-colours floral embroidery that looked gorgeous! The pictures of the two with family and friends were nothing short of adorable, and she posted them for her fans to see, captioning it- The Mehendi was like something out of a dream.

Fans looked up Alia Bhatt Instagram to see candids of the couple from the mehndi that the actress had posted. She wrote “It was a day full of love, family, our beautiful best friends, a LOT of French fries, a surprise performance by the ladkewalas, Ayan playing DJ, a BIG surprise organised by Mr. Kapoor (my favourite artist performed my favourite songs), all followed by some happy tears and quiet, blissful moments with the love of my life. There are days… and then there are days like these!” All we have to say is aww.

Alia and Ranbir’s afterparty too was a glamorous affair filled with glitzy outfits, great music and smiles. She shared pictures on different occasions from the reception party, and the actress was truly shining brightly in that dress.

Whether it was a cute moment between beau Ranbir and her, or an adorable selfie with her mom and mom-in law or our personal favourite, a candid of her and best friend and mentor Karan Johar- each picture was a memory framed in time.

All through April and May, the Alia Bhatt Instagram look book saw an overflow of wedding pictures, and neither we nor the fans are complaining. Cute selfies, candid photographs and behind-the-scenes videos of the couple were totally what we signed up for.

Doha Visit

The actress knows that her social media is a way to connect with fans and give them a sneak peak into her life. So when she visited Doha, to inaugurate a jewellery brand she took to her Instagram to share some glimpses of the trip. Alia served major fashion goals, and we were quick to save the look to our archives. Her chic power suit, gorgeous jewellery, and beautifully done hairdo was the perfect ensemble for the occasion and she looked nothing short of stunning. She captioned the picture with a quirky rhyme that said, “A beautiful day in Doha with some french fries and poha.”

Pregnancy Announcement

Another big milestone for Alia came up, was her pregnancy announcement! Congratulations were in order for the couple as the actress took to social media to announce their pregnancy with a candid picture of her and Ranbir from the hospital. In the picture, they can be seen sharing a cute moment, as they watch the ultrasound screen. The announcement took the internet by storm, and the love that was showered on them was overwhelming. The picture captioned “Our baby, coming soon.” saw Alia looking at the monitor with the biggest smile and we can already tell that she is going to be a great mom.

Darlings Promotions

With big things happening in Alia’s personal life, her professional life was at an all-time high too. The actress made her OTT platform debut with her movie Darlings, and her promotional looks had her experimenting. From pantsuits to beautiful dresses, the actresses carried every look with perfection, and made sure that her Insta-fam was kept in loop! One of our favourites from the promotional lookbook was the classic white and denim combination. The baggy statement jeans were an experimental piece gone right and we loved the post caption, “just another day, lounging around and promoting darlings- hope you’re having a nice day, bye!

She also went the desi route and opted for a black salwar kameez set with golden embroidery, and of course, looked stunning as ever because Alia Bhatt and ethnic wear can never go wrong. Her darling promotional posts, deserve an album of their own, because she managed to slay every trend effortlessly.

Brahmastra Promotions

August was the month of Brahmastra promotions for the actress. With the film slated to release in the first week of September, the entire team was leaving no stone unturned when it came to promotions and preparations and Alia too was going all out. Her post from the Deva Deva song launch had her sporting a contemporary brown dress, that scored high on grace and comfort. She posted it with the title, “All set to see Deva Deva with the press, and my little darling.”

The mom-to-be also left no occasion to challenge stereotypical notions when it came to maternity wear, and truly showed us a whole range of quirky outfits. Alia Bhatt’s cheeky rani pink gharara set with the flashy message at the back reading “baby on board” was just the cherry on top that we needed.

Baby Shower

The latest update in the actress’s life has been from her beautiful baby shower celebration. The celebration that was held in their residence, saw members from both the Bhatt and Kapoor family, along with all of Alia’s closest friends. 

The actress looked beautiful as ever, in a yellow kurta set, smiling and laughing as she was surrounded by her loved ones. She took to her Instagram to share some candid moments from the ceremony, and captioned it “just love.”

Alia Bhatt this year has proved that she has it all. Big-ticket releases, the love of fans, the respect of critics and the appreciation of every sought-after director in her industry. Moreover, she has also made strides in her personal life and is a wonderful daughter, wife and soon-to-be mother. But most importantly, the actress who saw fame at the tender age of 19, has a good head on her shoulders and has managed to grow into a talented actress. When you think about Alia Bhatt’s Instagram, you think of great style, glamour and inspirational progess and that’s what we’ve appreciated and will continue to appreciate throughout!
