The 'Raazi' actor previously co-produced the 2022 movie 'Darlings' with Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment. She also produced the action thriller 'Jigra' alongside Dharma Productions and Viacom18.

For the event, Alia, who never fails to impress fans with her fashion choices, opted for a white top paired with classic denim. The actress also spoke briefly with the media about her upcoming project.

On the acting front, Alia will next be seen in the spy thriller 'Alpha,' which also stars Sharvari Wagh, Anil Kapoor, and Bobby Deol. The film is produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films and is part of the popular YRF Spy Universe. It is scheduled for release in theatres on July 10, 2026.

The Prime Video slate looks exciting. As an NRI, it's great to see high-quality Indian content readily available overseas. 'Don't Be Shy' sounds like a good slice-of-life drama. Will definitely watch.

Between 'Alpha' in the Spy Universe, 'Love & War' with SLB, and now producing this... Alia Bhatt is truly the busiest and most powerful actress of her generation. Her career graph is inspirational. 🔥
