In his note, he also said that Alia should be nominated at the British Academy Film Awards and Oscars for her performance in 'Gangubai Kathiawadi'."If I was a member of BAFTA or the Academy (I'm not), this year I would be voting for Alia Bhatt as Best Actress for her performance in GANGUBAI KATHIAWADI (Sanjay Leela Bhansali, India, 2022). She plays a prostitute turned underworld brothel madam turned a campaigner for sex workers' rights, and the joy of her performance is how she grows as her character develops," he wrote.https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm6g2casIAt/?hl=en"The film is big, brash, sentimental and hugely enjoyable, but Bhatt is sensational. There's the additional pleasure of the film's classic Hindi cinema references - from Gangubai's love of Dev Anand to scenes of cinema-going in the 50s and 60s to the numerous film posters lining the streets around Bombay's red light district. If you haven't seen it (especially BAFTA and Academy Award-voting friends), please head to Netflix ASAP. #aliabhatt #gangubaikathiawadi," he added.Robin's received a heartfelt reaction from Alia.Sharing Robin's note on her Instagram Story, Alia dropped a string of white heart emojis.Recently, Sophia of Loki fame also penned a note of appreciation for Alia."Woahhh. What a turn @aliabhatt is going to take over the world in about a minute and a half #GangubaiKathiawadi" Martino wrote alongside the film's poster," she wrote.Alia shared a screenshot of Martino's post and thanked her."This means so much from someone who is about to takeover a whole multiverse," Alia wrote. In her reply to Bhatt, Martino said, "Casual Fan Girling over here."'Gangubai Kathiawadi', which was released in theatres on February 25, 2022, revolves around a girl sold by a suitor into prostitution and how she becomes a prominent and celebrated figure in the underworld and Kamathipua red-light district.
