From recreating ‘Tip Tip Barsa Paani’ to Brahmastra shoot, Alia Bhatt takes us through a new behind-the-scenes journey in her YouTube video. While she has established herself as the youth icon of the current generation with her social media presence, Alia Bhatt is exploring a new side of internet with YouTube. Unlike others, the actress is planning to enter this new medium by launching her own YouTube channel. In a launch video for the same, the actress spoke about the reason behind her decision and also took us through a unique journey of behind the scenes and what goes around this world of glamour and films which included her past films including Brahmastra which she has been shooting for currently and it also gave us a peek-a-boo into her famous ‘Tip Tip Barsa Paani’ video!
There was a time when she had even donned the quintessential Raveena Tandon avatar in a yellow saree and matching blouse for the ‘Tip Tip Barsa Paani’ video, just like the way the Mohra actress had worn in the original song? Well, the actress gave a glimpse of what behind her dance performance for that particular video. If that wasn’t all we also got a little sneak peek into the shooting of her various films. Alia Bhatt recorded her message for this YouTube channel launch video whilst she was shooting for Brahmastra in Varanasi.
In the message given by the actress regarding her own YouTube channel, Alia mentioned that this was her attempt to showcase a much more personal side of her to the world and especially her fans.
Another news about Alia Bhatt is that her starrer Gully Boy heads to Film Festival in Melbourne.

Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt starrer Gully Boy is one of the superhits of this year. Everyone loved how director Zoya Akhtar showed us rags to riches story of an aspiring rapper and gave us some amazing rap songs. Both Ranveer and Alia impressed us with their performances. Now, the film is all set to reach greater heights and get international exposure.
