I am sure this has been discussed before but I genuinely want to know something about Bollywood’s golden girl and declared national treasure, Alia Bhatt, who is also… a British citizen who has never given up her UK passport. Born in London, holds citizenship, and has been casually repping India while holding an EU-adjacent escape hatch this whole time 💀
No shade, smart woman honestly. Respect her for that.
BUT NOW since Ranbir is Indian and Alia is British, what exactly is baby Raha? Did they register her as Indian? Did Alia pass down that UK citizenship? Is Raha out here at 2 years old already holding a stronger passport than most of us will ever have?
And the bigger question, does Alia even want to give up her British citizenship? She’s never addressed it. Not once. In a country where people get dragged for way less, she’s somehow kept this completely under the radar for her entire career. Seems like “I am so Indian, this is my home” energy is a very calculated PR move? Or does she genuinely feel it and just… also likes having options?
Anyone actually know the legal answer here? And do we think they’d ever publicly address it or just keep it lowkey like Alia has for years?
