Following the news, Alia, accompanied by her sister, Shaheen Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor, visited Ayan Mukerji's residence to offer condolences.
On March 12, Alia celebrated her birthday amidst the media, where she also shared insights about her upcoming film, 'Love and War'.
Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film features Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, and Vicky Kaushal.
Discussing the film's progress, Alia revealed that the cast is currently filming during night schedules to ensure a distraction-free environment for Bhansali's signature elaborate storytelling.
