Dhaka, July 30 -- Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt has been working in the industry for over a decade. She began her regular acting career in 2012 with the film Student of the Year.

Now, Alia's father Mahesh Bhatt has spoken on this matter and described his daughter as a self-made actress.

Speaking on The Himanshu Mehra Show, Mahesh Bhatt said, "I didn't launch Alia in films. It was Karan Johar who brought her in. I didn't know Alia had such a deep interest in acting. I never saw that talent in her. She gave the audition herself, and when they selected her, I was also surprised. But today, I'm very happy that she has achieved so much on her own."
