Alia Bhatt wants to do a biopic; 'Kapoor and Sons' actress keen to play Nazia Hassan

Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt has mesmerised audience with each and every role she has played on-screen. After playing a few challenging roles, the actress is now keen to do a biopic on a popular singer Nazia Hassan.

"I think a biopic on Pakistani singer Nazia Hassan would be great," the DNA quoted Alia as saying. "After all, I also love singing and her life story is amazing," she added. The actress seemed to have done the homework for the role by her own. Does this mean Alia will soon do a biopic?

"She (Nazia) was really young and we lost her at a very early age. She has an interesting life story which can make for a good film on celluloid. So, in that sense, yes this would be one biopic I would love to do," she told the daily.

A few people know that Alia's debut film "Student of the Year" had a reprise version of Nazia's song – "Disco Deewane." "One of her first songs was there in my first film 'Disco Deewane.' I've heard a lot about her recently. It's interesting how she did this particular song and it came into play," Alia said. 

It will be interesting to see Alia play Nazia's character on screen. The actress has also proved her passion for singing. Alia has even lent her voice to films like "Highway" and "Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania." 

Meanwhile, the actress is flying high after the success of her latest film "Kapoor and Sons." After delivering hit films since her debut, Alia had to face a flop with "Shaandaar" last year. But, the diva made a comeback with Shakun Batra's directorial.

In "Kapoor and Sons," Alia plays a girl-next-door character who eventually falls in love with Sidharth Malhotra's character. Alia will next be seen in Shahid Kapoor-starrer "Udta Punjab" and Gauri Shinde's next alongside Shah Rukh Khan.
