Alia Bhatt admits she is getting ‘creative’ these days when she cooks up random and magical things to make stories for her daughter Raha Kapoor. The actor was in a free-wheeling chat on the YouTube channel Ed-a-mamma Conscious Clothing, joined by other moms, where she shared how she makes up stories about her husband, Ranbir Kapoor, and sister, Shaheen Bhatt, because her daughter wants to hear them.

During the chat, Alia said, "I am in that phase right now where I am currently making stories up for Raha where suddenly she will be like 'Mama, Mama tell me Papa's story,' then I'll make up a story about Ranbir, then tell me Tanna's story like she calls my sister Tanna so I'm literally making stories up that I'm really like becoming very creative."

‘It feels quite special’

She went on to add, "I'm saying random very like magical things and stuff like that, and then she immediately moves on in two lines to another story yeah, so it feels quite special to even like be a storyteller for your child."

Alia and Ranbir Kapoor welcomed their baby daughter Raha in November 2022. She is often spotted with the two of them during public appearances. In June, Alia released her debut novel called The Adventures of Ed-a-Mamma: Ed Finds a Home. Ed-a-Mamma is a sustainable children's clothing brand that was found by Alia in 2020.
