Alia Bhatt reacts to Akansha Ranjan’s old audition tape

Akansha posted an old audition video of hers taken at Mukesh Chhabra Casting Company, writing, “Found this gem from 2014—my early audition days when i basically lived rent free at @mukeshchhabracc I was so raw, so clueless, and rocking some seriously oversized side locks. But I was also so full of excitement, dreams, and that fearless energy only comes when you don’t know what you don’t know. Crazy to look back and see how much has changed!!”

The actor also asked people to figure out what film she was auditioning for, because she couldn’t recollect, writing, “PS- can anyone figure what film this is ?? From the character names?? Did it even get made?? Im totally blank!!!” While her friends did not remind her which film it was, Alia wrote, “So lovely (red heart emoji)” Bhumi Pednekar also commented, “Kanchu (red heart emoji)” Her fans also commented on how ‘innocent’ and ‘young’ she looked in the video.
