Alia Bhatt's sassy reply to Kangana Ranaut: I have an opinion but I will keep it to myself

Mumbai: Actress Alia Bhatt has responded to Kangana Ranaut's criticism regarding celebrities who don't take a stand on political and social issues by saying that she has an opinion on matters, but she likes to keep it to herself. Alia was interacting with the media at the fourth edition of Outlook Business magazine's 'Women of Worth' awards here on Wednesday. At 'Manikarnika' success bash, Kangana recently criticized actors like Ranbir Kapoor, Alia and Ranveer Singh for not voicing their opinions on political topics and for staying aloof from issues concerning the society at large.

Commenting on this, Alia said: "I definitely don't have that ability to speak as candidly as Kangana does and I really respect her for that. Maybe, in a way she is right that sometimes we do hold back because we don't want to talk unnecessarily about an issue." "My dad (filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt) always says that there are already so many opinions in the world, so the world can do with one less opinion. So, I have an opinion but I will keep it to myself. But kudos to her (Kangana) because she genuinely speaks really well." PICS & VIDEOS: Alia Bhatt gets emotional during BFF's bidaai; Dances her heart out at sangeet ceremony!
