Couple of months ago, B-Town cutie Alia Bhatt created waves with her video ‘Genius of the Year’ and now in yet another initiative, the actress has appeared in a short film, by ‘Queen’ director Vikas Bahl, titled ‘Going Home’.
The video portrays a sort of utopian world for the young Indian woman, where she doesn’t have to worry about travelling during odd hours of the night, dressing the way she wants and approaching a car full of unknown men for help.
In the film, Alia Bhatt is shown driving home by herself late at night on a secluded road. After assuring her worried mother that she’ll be home soon, the girl comes across some car trouble and is stranded with no help in sight, except for a car full of men who can’t help but stare at her.
The car approaches cautiously, however, Alia Bhatt without any inhibitions jumps out of the car and explains her situation. The men get out and examine the vehicle. In a strange turn of events, though they are obviously enamored by the beautiful young girl in the tight leather skirt, the men are absolutely chivalrous and drop Alia safely to her gate.
‘Going Home’ has gone viral, with various people sharing it on social media. Alia herself shared the video on Twitter.
