Alia Bhatt Reveals She Refused To Give Her Makeup Artist More Time On Her Wedding Day, ‘You Lost It’

Alia Bhatt recently revealed why she refused to give her makeup artist two hours to do her makeup on her wedding day.

Alia Bhatt is one of the most talked-about and successful actresses in the present generation. Along with her acting, Alia’s different stylish looks on-screen have also started new trends in the industry. For instance, her wedding looks from 2 States, Raazi, and Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani became quite famous. Even in her personal life, Alia ditched the typical red colour, and wore an ivory organza saree with open hair and minimal makeup on her wedding day. In a new interview, Alia shared why she refused to give her makeup artist extra time to do her makeup on her wedding day.

Alia Bhatt recalls asking the makeup artist to hurry on her wedding day

Alia Bhatt is well known for her elegant and minimal looks, which she even flaunted on her wedding day. Recently, Alia sat down for an interview with Allure and shared some of her makeup and skincare insights. During the conversation, she recalled an interesting anecdote about her wedding makeup. The actress shared that her makeup artists required around two hours to do her makeup. However, she refused the same and asked him to hurry up. She was quoted as saying:

“On my wedding day, my makeup artist Puneet was like, ‘Alia, this time you need to give me two hours.’ I told her, ‘You’ve lost it. Especially on my wedding day, I’m not giving you two hours because I want to chill.'”

The Raazi actress added that there is a special reason behind her choosing to go for quick and simple looks. Apart from her personal preference, she also has attention deficit disorder, or ADD, due to which she does not want to spend much time on makeup or styling. For the unversed, ADD is a kind of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. As a result, Alia tries to invest a maximum of 45 minutes for her makeup.

Alia Bhatt shared she has been dealing with body image issues for a long time

People always look up to actresses for inspiration on makeup, styling, and body size. However, in the same interview, Alia, amongst the fittest actresses in the industry, admitted that the film industry is rigid regarding beauty standards. She recalled that she was a healthy kid and was happy about it. Alia revealed she later struggled with body-image issues and often tried to lose weight as she was judgemental about her body. Even her friends tried to stop her perspective from changing only after she became a mother and was grateful for her body for the same. In her words:

“I was quite a chubby, healthy kind of kid, very happy with my life at the time. I didn’t think there was anything wrong with the way I looked. I have struggled with body-image issues since then. No matter how much weight I lost, I always struggled. My friends would say, ‘Alia, you need to stop dieting. Just be calm, live a little, eat some food.’ And I used to be like, Once a fat kid, always a fat kid. I used to say that in my head, no matter how much weight I lost.”
