Alia Bhatt shares how motherhood has transformed her work approach. After the birth of her daughter, Raha, she prefers a slower pace.
From returning to work soon after childbirth to choosing meaningful roles, Bollywood actors prove that motherhood doesn’t slow down ambition. In a recent interview with ETimes, Alia Bhatt, who welcomed her daughter Raha in 2022, spoke about how she has slowed down the volume and pace of her work, while her love for films remains unchanged.
Alia Bhatt talks about slowing down after Motherhood
Alia shared how embracing motherhood has reshaped her approach to work, saying, “Of course, the volume and the speed at which I work now are different because I have a child. But it’s a comfortable pace, and I’m happy with it. I like doing one film at a time and giving it all my energy. Earlier, I would do two or three films simultaneously, but I don’t want to do that anymore.”
She also spoke about shooting Alpha, an action film, after becoming a mother, and said, “Doing action after having a baby was very interesting because it allowed me to see what my body is capable of. It was such a learning experience, and it gave me a lot of respect for my body.”

In an interview with Allure magazine, Alia described Raha as “naughty and chatty” and called her a bright child, adding that she often has moments of shyness. Alia’s father and filmmaker Mukesh Bhatt had once revealed that she takes Raha to work with her and that the toddler has her own vanity van.
