Mahesh Bhatt Says Toddler Raha Has Her Own Vanity Van on Alia Bhatt’s Sets

His remark renews scrutiny of on‑set accommodations, including mounting entourage costs.

Overview

  • Bhatt recounted during a Humans of Bombay interview that he saw a vanity van set up for granddaughter Raha while shooting an ad with Alia Bhatt and Amitabh Bachchan.
  • He described the child’s space as feeling like a nursery school and “almost like a temple,” while praising Alia for balancing work and parenting.
  • Coverage notes Alia’s recent comments to Grazia about coordinating night shoots and day care with Ranbir Kapoor and occasionally bringing Raha to sets or events such as a Gucci outing in Milan.
  • Reports from industry figures highlight growing strain from star demands, with producers asked to cover large entourages and multiple vanity vans that inflate budgets.
  • Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta cited a case where a producer scrapped a South Indian film after an actor arrived with six vans, and reports also point to Deepika Padukone exiting a project after disagreement over fixed working hours.
