Alia Bhatt is on a roll these days. Her recent outing Highway is winning her all the love from everybody in the industry, thanks to her splendid performance. And now, news about her next, 2 States has come up. The maker of the film, Sajid Nadiadwala has revealed that the young starlet will be enacting the role of a South Indian wife in the movie.

 

 

Sajid said, “Alia has played the first non caricatural South Indian character in our films. Normally when we show South Indians in our films they have thick accent, and if it’s a woman from the South she will have gajra in her hair and will go ‘Aiyo’ every five minutes. Alia does none of that. How do I explain this? Alia is Tamilian and she even talks in Tamil. But she behaves like a normal city wife.” The actress herself confirmed the news, “I was not allowed to be culture-specific in 2 States in my body-language or my accent. Yes, I am a Tamilian in 2 States. But I don’t make a show of my regional roots. It is tough because when you are not resorting to speech and behavioral props, you have no handy tools to give personality to your character.”
