Alia Bhatt turns 29: know the meaning of her name as Soni Razdan explains:

Alia is currently basking in the success of her last release Gangubai Kathiwadi, which has broken a few records at the box office as it grossed over Rs 100 crore within a week. The diva is also gearing up for her grand debut in the South with SS Rajamouli’s RRR, which is set for release on March 25. Alia is celebrating her birthday with a vacation with her mother Soni Razdan and sister Shaheen Bhatt. Shaheen has been sharing pictures from their vacation.

A birthday wish from Soni Razdon:

 “Alia means ‘exalted’ and that you most certainly are, apart from the fact that today you’re a bright star. When we named you we didn’t have a clue, that this is what your name meant, and that it might come true. All we knew about you was that you were so sweet, so cute and so cuddly and adorable and neat. And then you grew up to be a lovely person, kind and considerate and balanced and so certain, of what it was you wanted and what was right and wrong. And how to go about making life into a song, a song of beauty and love, and of so much caring.

One thing is for certain, your life’s all about sharing. To you, on your birthday I wish you so much love, from all of the earth and the heavens above. Always remember there’s one true thing, and that is that you are just perfect as YOU. You’re special, you’re fabulous, you’re super and fantabulous. You’re super-Cali- fragile, and expi-Alia-docillous.” She ended the poem with a message, “Happy Birthday dearest one, Your loving Mama.” Alia just wrote “Mommy” along with several heart icons in her reaction to the poem in the comments section.

Wishes from Neetu Kapoor:

Neetu Kapoor wished Alia on her Instagram Stories by sharing a picture of them. She wrote, “Happy birthday to the most beautiful inside out.” Riddhima Kapoor also shared a picture featuring her, daughter Samara, Alia, and Neetu. “Happiest birthday my beautiful Aaloo! Love you so much.”
