Alia Bhatt attended the trailer launch of Amazon Prime Video's original crime series Poacher. The crime saga talks about animal cruelty that revolves around the elephant poaching racket prevalent in the state.
Poacher is backed by Alia Bhatt's Eternal Sunshine Productions. Created, written, and directed by International Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Richie Mehta, the web series features Nimisha Sajayan, Roshan Mathew, and Dibyendu Bhattacharya in pivotal roles.
The trailer of Poacher gives a sneak peek into the dense forest of Kerala and pans into the dark world of poaching in India.
The trailer launch event was held in Mumbai and was attended by Alia Bhatt and the team.
The actor spoke about her early filming days and also mentioned that when she met Richie for Poacher, she was pregnant.
She said, "Richie and I met in 2022, I was full-blown pregnant, just about to pop. We spoke everything under the son. We spoke about parenting, cinema, movies, and art, and in that meeting, she took me to the world of Poacher. I was flabbergasted that it was based on true events, and then we kept taking it.
Alia looked stunning in a mint green pantsuit.
Several pictures and videos of Alia from the trailer launch event have surfaced online.
In one of the videos shared on the paparazzi page, Alia was seen fidgeting as she sat on the couch candidly. The paparazzi captioned the video: "We all have that one friend who has the habit of fidgeting with her fingers, Tag."
Netizens flocked to his comment section and believed that Alia was very conscious and nervous.
