Career:
Bhatt's first acting role was as a child artist in Sangharsh (1999), starring Akshay Kumar and Preity Zinta where she played the younger version of Zinta's character. She had her first leading role in 2012 with Karan Johar's Student of the Year, alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan. She portrayed the role of Shanaya Singhania, a sophisticated teenage girl who is in a relationship with Dhawan's character but is attracted to the character played by Malhotra. Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama wrote of her performance, "Alia's role is reminiscent of Kareena Kapoor in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Stylish, classy, born with a silver spoon, she's someone who loves to flaunt not just her clothes and bags, but also her riches. Extremely photogenic, Alia makes a super-confident debut." Anupama Chopra of Hindustan Times also mentioned the similarities with Kapoor's character, but noted that her performance was "without the killer attitude." Student of the Year was a financial success, grossing ₹700 million (US$10 million) domestically.
In 2014, Bhatt had three film releases. She played the protagonist of Imtiaz Ali's road film Highway opposite Randeep Hooda. Her portrayal of a lonely teenage girl who develops stockholm syndrome after being abducted was acclaimed by the critics. She is truly one of the most promising new actors in Hindi films." Sonia Chopra of Sify added that Bhatt is "[c]ompletely immersed" in her role, and that "Alia’s uninhibited and raw performance will have you emotionally invested in her character all through." However, the film underperformed at the box office. She won the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress for the film, and garnered a Best Actress nomination at the ceremony.
Bhatt next featured in Johar and Sajid Nadiadwala's joint production 2 States with Arjun Kapoor. An adaptation of Chetan Bhagat's novel of the same name, it narrates the story of two IIM Ahmedabad students who encounter trouble in convincing their parents to approve of their relationship. For her role as Ananya Swaminatham, a headstrong Tamil girl, she learnt the language. Critics were appreciative of her performance with Rediff.com publishing that Bhatt "really grows into the character and makes you believe that she's a career-oriented IIM-A grad." Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express added that Bhatt was a "surprise" and was "easy and fresh and natural." The film emerged as a major commercial success, earning over ₹1 billion (US$15 million) in domestic ticket sales.
Bhatt's final film role in 2014 was as Kavya Pratap Singh, a Punjabi girl who engages in a romantic affair with a stranger a few days prior to her wedding, in the romantic comedy Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania. Co-starring Varun Dhawan and Siddharth Shukla, the film was described as a tribute to Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) by Johar, who served as producer.Writing for India Today, Rohit Khilnani thought that Bhatt had pitched in "one of her best performances so far", though Nandini Ramnath of Mint found her performance to be lacking in subtlety, writing that she was "more comfortable acting out her feelings through dialogue and actions". Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania also proved to be a box office hit. Later that year, Bhatt appeared in a short film on women's safety, entitled Going Home, from director Vikas Bahl.
In 2015, Bhatt acted in Vikas Bahl's romantic comedy, Shaandaar, opposite Shahid Kapoor. The film was set around a destination wedding in which she played the role of an insomniac. Deepanjana Pal of Firstpost reviewed: " Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt look gorgeous and do their best to keep you entertained with their easy delivery and sharp dance moves." The film however, was a box-office failure.
As of May 2015, Bhatt is filming for Abhishek Chaubey's Udta Punjab, a thriller on substance abuse that co-stars Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, as well as Shakun Batra's family drama Kapoor and Sons alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Fawad Khan. In addition, she has committed to Ayan Mukerji's untitled fantasy film alongside Ranbir Kapoor about a man with superpowers, to Karan Malhotra's drama Shhuddhi with Varun Dhawan and to Gauri Shinde's untitled project with Shah Rukh Khan.
