Alia Bhatt spoke about her nanny dying in road accident
At the event, Alia Bhatt recalled the emotional incident from her childhood and said, “When I was 12 years old, there was a lady who was very close to me. You can call her my nanny. But she was like a sister to me. Her name was Sharda. We lost her after a very tragic accident on the road. She was going for a temple visit with her partner while her partner was wearing helmet, she was not. They hit her truck and she was pronounced dead on the spot. After that there was this anxiety in the home that this can happen to anyone and anytime. My mother was anxious for me. She warned the driver that she would fire him if he drives without me wearing a seat belt in the backseat. But I wore the seatbelt because somebody was telling me to. Now, after becoming a mother, my perspective has changed. I understood the responsibility of being safe and secure for my child.”
