Mahesh Bhatt picks Arjun over Alia in '2 States'

Darpan News Desk IANS, 14 Apr, 2014 03:20 PM
  • Mahesh Bhatt picks Arjun over Alia in '2 States'
Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who watched his daughter Alia Bhatt’s third film “2 States”, is happy to see her playing a different role. But it’s her co-star Arjun Kapoor who stole the filmmaker’s heart.
 
“‘2 States’ - Alia is fantastic in a startlingly different role. But it is Arjun who stole my heart and made me weep. He is a star! It’s a winner,” Mahesh posted on Twitter Monday.
 
The film, based on Chetan Bhagat's bestseller by the same name, revolves around a Punjabi boy, who falls in love with a Tamil girl. The regional and cultural clash that it leads to is what forms the rest of the story.
 
It will hit theatres Friday.
