When Alia Bhatt revealed how she lost weight after Raha's birth

Alia admitted it wasn’t easy but credited breastfeeding for helping her lose weight.

Alia Bhatt, who welcomed her daughter Raha Kapoor in November 2022, stunned fans with her quick post-pregnancy transformation. When she appeared on Kareena Kapoor Khan's talk show, What Women Want, Kareena asked her how she shed weight so fast—especially since she shot for Tum Kya Mile from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani soon after giving birth.

Alia admitted it wasn’t easy but credited breastfeeding for helping her lose weight. "It was not easy, of course. Nothing is easy. But honestly, again people will think that I’m just saying this, but while I was doing everything like eating healthy, I was still feeding. I was breastfeeding for a very long time so I couldn’t go on some crazy strict diet or anything like that. And I could only start working out properly after 12 weeks. Breastfeeding actually makes you burn a lot of calories, that I think did half of it. And then in general my choices, even during pregnancy, were not like I was eating sugar everyday and all of that. I was eating little more than I usually eat, or more than I usually eat. By the end of it I was like ‘no food is feeling enough for me’. But my choices are naturally healthy," she said.

Alia is now in top shape, as she is filming for YRF’s spy universe and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love and War, co-starring Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal. She also has Brahmastra and Baiju Bawra in the pipeline. The actress recently celebrated her birthday, cutting a cake with the media, alongside Ranbir Kapoor.
