Alia Bhatt, who welcomed a baby girl earlier this month, during a recent interview with the magazine Marie Claire, opened up about raising a child in the spotlight. The actress told Marie Claire, "I am a little concerned about bringing up a child in the public eye." Alia added that she often talks about it to her husband Ranbir Kapoor, her friends and family. "I talk about it with my friends, with my family, and my husband a lot. I don't want there to be a, sort of, intrusion into my child's life. Because at the end of the day, I have chosen this path, but maybe my child may not want to choose this path when he or she grows up...so that's something that I feel very protective about," Marie Claire quoted Alia Bhatt as saying.
