A Tale of Contrasting Journeys – Alia Bhatt and Kriti Sanon’s National Award win reiterates that star-kids and industry outsiders can coexist successfully when they possess undeniable talent

With Bollywood often characterized by glitz, glamour, and the often debated topic of nepotism, this year’s National Awards have truly reaffirmed their standing as a celebration of pure talent and exceptional performances in Indian cinema.

Among the many highlights of this prestigious event for which trophies will be handed out soon perhaps none shines as brightly as the co-sharing of the Best Actress Award – Female by Alia Bhatt and Kriti Sanon, two remarkable talents whose journeys to stardom couldn’t be more different.

Alia Bhatt, hails from a lineage deeply rooted in the industry. She emerged into the world of cinema with the undeniable advantage of having celebrity parents, Mahesh Bhatt and Soni Razdan. However, what truly sets Alia apart is her undeniable talent and her unwavering commitment to her craft. In the face of nepotism allegations and detractors, she has proved time and again that her success is a result of her hard work, dedication, and remarkable acting prowess.

Alia’s journey from a star-kid to a celebrated actress is a testament to her undeniable talent, and her National Award win further solidifies her place in the limelight.

On the other hand, we have Kriti Sanon, a shining example of a self-made artist. Hailing from a middle-class family in Delhi, Kriti embarked on her Bollywood journey as a clear outsider with no industry connections. Her debut marked the beginning of a remarkable ascent in the world of cinema. What’s truly commendable is that Kriti Sanon achieved the pinnacle of recognition in the form of a National Award just nine years into her career, a feat that is nothing short of extraordinary.

Her journey is a testament to the fact that raw talent, relentless hard work, and determination can pave the way to success, even without the support of industry insiders.

The co-sharing of the National Award for Best Actress by Alia Bhatt and Kriti Sanon sends a powerful message to the industry and the audience alike. It demonstrates that in the world of Indian cinema, both star-kids and industry outsiders can coexist successfully when they possess undeniable talent and dedication to the craft.

In a time when the film industry is undergoing significant transformation and introspection, the National Awards this year served as a beacon of hope and validation for young talents aspiring to make their mark. The recognition of both Alia Bhatt and Kriti Sanon reaffirms that in the world of cinema, talent is the true currency, and it knows no boundaries, be it lineage or background.
