Alaya F is making a strong mark in Bollywood with her performances. During an exclusive interview In The Ring With Filmfare, she opened up about the challenges she faced early in her career due to her mother Pooja Bedi’s strong presence on social media. Alaya felt that people were more focused on her mother’s views than on her own work, which made it hard for her to establish her own identity.
Alaya also shared how she did not want the “baggage” of her mother’s opinions early in her career. “I wanted to figure out life by myself and wished people would know me for my personality, and not for my mother. I did not want to be in an interview being asked about her opinion. I wanted to have my own things to talk about. My mother agreed to it. She was quite receptive to my suggestions. It really helped me figure out my own space and opinions,” she said.
