Alia Bhatt on revealing Raha's face in public

On Christmas last year, Alia and Ranbir posed for the paparazzi along with their daughter Raha for the first time. Until then the couple had requested the paparazzi to not click pictures of their daughter. Alia said that the decision to show Raha's face to the public made her very anxious.

On the show, Alia revealed that she has been clinically diagnosed with anxiety and Ranbir was well aware that the moment would make her anxious and therefore they communicated about the same before they stepped out with their daughter.

Alia Bhatt said, "He obviously understood that, and he said okay now you're going to get really anxious so now let's talk about it what your worst fear is. This we talked all the way from Bandra to Juhu and then finally I was like listen it's true like this is our life and I don't want people to think that oh you can't see my daughter's face, that was not the intention."

Talking about that moment, Alia said, "I just didn't want to be like a whole thing and that one moment happened, and it was such a cute moment where she was holding both our faces like that."

Alia also said that she still gets nervous when their daughter gets clicked by paparazzi an she requests photographers to not flash light on her face.
