Alia Bhatt is currently in the greatest phase of her career. With every film becoming a superhit in 2022 when movies struggled at the box office, to receive accolades the actress is at her peak. She is now basking the success of Brahmasta meanwhile, Alia Bhatt landed on an international publication’s list of greatest performances of all time.
The Guardian released a fresh list of the greatest and worst movie performances of all time selected by their writers. Alia was one of the actors to make the great list, with the likes of Lupita Nyong’o and Marilyn Monroe. Among other International artists/actors, Alia Bhatt was one from India to be recognized as the greatest performer of all time for her role in Gangubai Kathiawadi.
Addressing Alia’s performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi, Guardian writer Mike McCahill wrote, “One of 2022’s greatest performances. As the real-life figure of Ganga Harjivandas, the self-improving sex slave who became queen of Mumbai’s 1960s red-light district, Bhatt makes complete emotional sense of a rollercoaster character arc. Her extraordinarily expressive dancing in drum number Dholida tells its own story: veering from communal celebration to personal desolation, it’s a walloping three-minute tabulation of everything this woman has gained and lost.”
Alia Bhatt reacted to praise by reposting the article with grinning face emojis. Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan also praised the actress for her significant work in Gangubai Kathiawadi. He wrote, “Alia, you are beyond magnificent in Gangubai. I am short of words to express anymore! My love as ever, Amitabh Bachchan.”
