Not Janhvi Kapoor or Ananya Panday, Kajol feels Alia Bhatt is the most promising star of the new generation: 'She has proven herself quite a bit'
Kajol acknowledges the evolving landscape of Bollywood and praises the new generation of actors for forging their own paths. She appreciates their self-awareness and independent choices, highlighting Alia Bhatt as the most promising talent. Kajol admires Alia's versatility and consistent performances in films like Gangubai Kathiawadi, recognizing her significant impact on the industry. As Bollywood continues to evolve with a wave of fresh talent, veteran actress Kajol is taking notice. In a recent interview, the DDLJ star shared her thoughts on the generational shift in the industry, praising today's young actors for forging their own paths instead of following in the footsteps of their predecessors. Among them, she singled out Alia Bhatt as the most promising talent of the new generation—highlighting her versatility, maturity, and consistent performances over the years. In an interview with India Today, Kajol was asked if any of today's young actors remind her of herself from the 1990s. She responded candidly, saying she's glad none of them do. Clarifying that it wasn't out of arrogance, Kajol explained that each emerging actor is carving their own identity and not walking in anyone else's footsteps — which, she believes, is exactly how it should be in today's changing industry. The actress further reflected on how much the film industry has evolved over the years. She pointed out that today's generation of actors is significantly more self-aware and driven by their own choices, unlike earlier times when guidance often came from others. When asked to name a standout performer from the younger generation, she acknowledged several rising stars but reserved special praise for Alia. She noted that Alia has consistently proven her talent, setting herself apart. While she also mentioned names like Ananya Panday , Janhvi Kapoor , and Sara Ali Khan , Kajol made it clear that Alia remains the most impressive among them in her eyes. Alia has won several accolades throughout her career for Udta Punjab, Raazi, Gully Boy, and Gangubai Kathiawadi. In 2024, she was also honoured with the National Film Award for Best Actress for her powerful performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi. Expanding her global footprint, Alia made her Hollywood debut in 2023 with the action thriller Heart of Stone.

‘Ranbir Kapoor dresses very classy': Ibrahim Ali Khan names RK as Bollywood's most fashionable star
Jun 21, 2025 04:05 PM IST Even before he began his career as an actor, Saif Ali Khan's son Ibrahim Ali Khan was already a heartthrob across social media. The credit goes to his drop-dead good looks, uncanny resemblance to Saif in his younger days, hilarious interactions with the paparazzi and his dressing sense — stylish and not over the top. After his debut film Nadaaniyan released, Ibrahim and his co-star Khushi Kapoor became targets for online trolling. However, he recently redeemed himself when he stepped out looking dapper in a suit with Rasha Thadani at an event, once again winning hearts with his style. But who does Ibrahim find stylish in Bollywood? Ranbir Kapoor and Ibrahim Ali Khan In a recent chat with Filmfare, Ibrahim Ali Khan named Ranbir Kapoor as the most fashionable Bollywood star. When asked who has the best fashion sense in the industry, the star kid replied, 'I would say it is Ranbir Kapoor. He dresses very classy.' Ibrahim went on to describe his top three favourite looks of Ranbir over the years. Ibrahim shared, 'He wears jeans with the Chelsea boots. He pairs it with a t-shirt that is not too slim and not too tight. And then adds a nice, either a blanket-ish kind of a jacket or like a coat. It's a classic look that Ranbir Kapoor smashes. He smashes that look. Looks cool and nice.' While Ibrahim is a fan of Ranbir's style, RK's actor wife Alia Bhatt is 'obsessed' with Iggy and has called him the cutest person she knows on Karan Johar's chat show. When Alia graced KJo's chat show with Ranveer Singh, much before Ibrahim's Bollywood debut, she revealed Iggy's sweet message to her after he watched Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022). Lauding Alia's 'phenomenal' performance in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film, Ibrahim had claimed that she mould herself into a character like water taking the shape of its container. For the uninitiated, Ibrahim was an assistant director on Alia and Ranveer's 2023 film Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. On the film front, Ibrahim will next be seen in KJo's Sarzameen with Kajol.

'Bengaluru has a vibrant and conscious community, and I hope it becomes more than just another brand here; I hope it becomes a part of the city's larger conversation on mindful, sustainable living,' she shares. She started it before becoming a mother, unmindful of the significant changes she would have to incorporate post the life-altering event. 'Becoming a mother has only deepened my connection to the brand in such a personal and powerful way. I'm always thinking about comfort, texture, safety, softness, and even how easy something is to put on and remove,' she says.

As the store comes into its own, Bhatt is hopeful of it bringing a change. 'In Bengaluru, I believe our planet-friendly approach will really resonate, encouraging families to make better and kinder choices. It's about planting seeds of change, one product at a time, and the 'garden city' feels like the perfect place to do that,' she says.
