When Alia Bhatt was asked about the overwhelming response to her character ‘Sehmat’ and the film, she was quoted saying, “I didn’t expect this kind of response. Since the beginning, we thought that we were making a small film, so we didn’t feel we would get so much attention and love from the audience.” All we can say that the appreciation is well-deserved! Raazi is a story of a Kashmiri spy girl who gets married to a Pakistani army officer in order to share the secret details. Read our review of Raazi right here if you haven’t still watched it.
