Reflecting on the moment when Alia Bhatt, star of Jigra, referred to Ibrahim Ali Khan as ‘the cutest person’ and read out his personal direct message to her on Koffee With Karan.
Alia Bhatt is widely regarded as one of the top actresses in Bollywood today and continues to inspire many aspiring actors. Reflecting on a memorable moment, Alia once shared her admiration for Saif Ali Khan’s son, Ibrahim Ali Khan, during an appearance on Karan Johar’s Koffee With Karan in 2022.
During the episode, Alia candidly admitted her obsession with Ibrahim, calling him “the cutest person” she had ever met. She read out his personal direct message on the show, which had both Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar in fits of laughter. The message began with Ibrahim saying, “Had to take the time to message you personally,” prompting Ranveer to joke about Alia being “busier than Jeff Bezos.”
Ibrahim’s message continued with praise for Alia’s acting, noting how she effortlessly adapts to different roles and calling her “the best actress in the country.” The heartfelt and humorous text left the hosts amused, with Karan Johar remarking, “He went Bruce Lee on you,” and Ranveer folding his hands in gratitude, saying, “Thank you, Sir, thank you.”
As for their current projects, Alia Bhatt is set to release Jigra on October 11, while Ranveer Singh is on paternity leave but will soon resume shooting for his next film with Aditya Dhar. Ibrahim Ali Khan is gearing up for his Bollywood debut with Sarzameen, alongside Kajol and Prithviraj Sukumaran, and has other projects in the pipeline, including a love story titled Diler, with South sensation Sreeleela.
