Alia Bhatt celebrates the much-deserved victory of Gangubai Kathiawadi’s 100 crore club entry

She captioned the image with, , “Happy century to Gangubai & happy vegan burger + fry to Alia. Thank you for all the love.”

Several comments started flooding the comments section one of which was by Ranveer Singh, who commented with “Nomnomnom.” Another fan left a comment, “Foodie Alia”, whereas another fan left a filmy comment by using a line from her film Gangubai Kathiawadi itself, “Gangu Chand thi, aur chand he rahegi.”

While one fan was completely in awe of her performance and shared, “No one can play Gangubai Kathiawadi better than you. You deserve every bit of it.” 

Alia had also shared an image in her stories that showed the total domestic box office collections of 102.68 CR as of yesterday.

Earlier speaking to an entertainment portal, the young actress has shared about her rigorous prepping for the role, “He (Sanjay) wanted me to watch Meena Kumari’s work a lot, her expressions… the way she would sing a song, although I am not going all out singing songs in the movie. There is a certain sadness in her eyes, but there is a power to her face. He would say, ‘See her face, which is so full’… I also watched Mandi.”

Furthermore she added, “Being an actor is one thing and being a heroine is another. I have been referred to watch these films and whenever I do, I only have admiration, whether it is for Waheeda Rehman Ji, Shabana Azmi ji, Madhubala ji… The way they would do these long shots gives you goosebumps. Somehow, we have lost that charm of presenting a heroine like that, that old-world charm.”

Gangubai Kathiawadi which is inspired from the real life story of a brothel madam is a story of power and pain filled with heartfelt emotions. It is set in the town of Kamathipura. The film also has Vijay Raaz and Ajay Devgn playing crucial roles.
