Alia Bhatt is very picky with her film choices and she settles for nothing but the best. From Highway to Udta Punjab and the recently released, Gully Boy, her graph as an actor has only seen an upward trend and the hunger in her is not going to die anytime soon. While her contemporary Deepika Padukone is busy shooting for a biopic on acid attack survivor, Laxmi Aggarwal, Alia too has something interesting lined up in the same category. She's in talks to star in a biopic on the life of world’s first woman amputee-mountaineer Arunima Sinha and if all goes well, she'll make the big announcement real soon. Earlier she starred in Meghna Gulzar's Raazi - a biopic on Sehmat Khan. Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Abhishek Bachchan and Other Bollywood Celebs Welcome 'Hero' Abhinandan Varthaman Home (Read Tweets).

A source in the report was quoted saying, “Arunima’s life has been an inspiration to many across the globe and what she has managed isn’t just an ordinary feat.
