Alia Bhatt offers Rs 50 Lakh each to driver and house help to buy their houses

Reports claim that the actress gave them each Rs 50 lakh as a token of her sincere appreciation and love.

Alia Bhatt has been making headlines recently after reports surfaced alleging that one of her personal assistants was involved in financial fraud related to her personal accounts and her production company, Eternal Sunshine Productions Pvt. Ltd.

Reports have also emphasised Alia's extraordinary generosity towards her two most dependable aides, who have been with her since the start of her career: her driver Sunil and domestic help Amol. This stands in contrast to the alarming news.

Reports claim that the actress gave them each Rs 50 lakh as a token of her sincere appreciation and love.

According to reports, Alia offered this financial assistance on her birthday in 2019 and urged Sunil and Amol to use it to buy their own homes. They were able to purchase one-bedroom apartments in Juhu and Khar, two of Mumbai's most desirable neighbourhoods, thanks to the considerate gift, which demonstrated their strong relationship and respect for the actress.

Vedika Prakash Shetty, her former personal assistant, is also charged with embezzling money from Bhatt's private accounts as well as her production company.

Earlier this year, Alia's mother, veteran actress Soni Razdan, allegedly lodged a police complaint against Shetty. Although more details are anticipated to surface during the ongoing investigation, neither Alia nor her team have yet to issue an official statement on the subject.

On the professional front, Alia Bhatt is gearing up for a dynamic slate of projects. She will next be seen in YRF’s much-anticipated spy thriller Alpha alongside Sharvari. Following that, she is set to star in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s magnum opus Love and War, which also features her husband Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal. The film is slated for release in 2026.
