Alia Bhatt is all set to drop all her sophistication and urban look for her upcoming movie with Sanjay Leela Bhansali-Gangubai Kathiawadi. Recent reports suggest that the Gully Boy actress had to work a lot to ensure that she looks apart from her usual uber-cool designer persona.
Alia Bhatt Has Given Career-best Performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi
According to Bollywood Hungama, the actress has given her career-best performance in this SLB movie based on the life of the head of a brothel in Rajasthan. Alia will portray a dark character that required her to use coarse and guttural language. And for that, it was important that she cuts off and unlearns her sophistication and manners.

Until now, in most of her Karan Johar movies, Alia Bhatt's characters were all about romance, designer dresses, and modern lifestyles. However, the role of Gangubai is far different from what she has done until now. Reports say, "SLB changed her body language and her spoken voice. She looks walks and talks differently in Gangubai. Her posture is raw and her language guttural. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say Gangubai Kathiawadi is a new beginning for Alia.”

Importantly, Alia Bhatt had to undergo extensive training and attend workshops to ensure that she does justice to the role of brothel head who later on turns into a dreaded gangster. Reports also say that the Padmaavat director is highly impressed with Alia's efforts in this crime thriller and wants to do yet another movie with her.
Alia Is At Peak Of Her Career
Apart from SLB's movie, Alia will also star in Karan Johar produced Brahmastra with Ranbir Kapoor. She is also a part of SS Rajamoui's RRR and a dark comedy produced by Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment.

While Karan Johar has always been her biggest support, Alia Bhatt is now slowly spreading her wings. With SLB's Gangubai Kathiawadi and SS Rajamouli's RRR, the actress have a chance to prove that she can make an impact even with other big banners and deliver a strong performance.
