In another tweet, Alia Bhatt added that the first time she stepped in to Mr Bhansali's office with a heart full of dreams was when she was much younger: "I was 9 when I first walked into Sanjay Leela Bhansali's office, all nervous and hoping and praying that I would be in his next film. It's been a long wait."
