New Delhi:
Alia Bhatt has just been part of ‘Harry Potter At Home’, a virtual initiative, which was launched by author JK Rowling’s fantastic media franchise, Wizarding World to entertain those who are at home during the lockout with the magical world of Harry Potter. As part of “Harry Potter at Home”, celebrities from around the world read chapters or parts of the Harry potter a series of books from their homes and videos are shared weekly. ‘Harry Potter At Home’ is currently busy with the first book in the series – Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone – with Alia Bhatt reading the eighth chapter of the book, entitled The potions master. Alia shares the reading session with Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin, who appears in the 18-minute video. Alec Baldwin also brings in a special guest, who also reads the book – it’s his daughter Carmen, a young Potterhead. You can watch the entire video here.
Alia, who shared a preview of the video on her Instagram, wrote about her introduction to the magical world of Harry Potter and his friends: “Two months ago, Harry, Hogwarts and the wizarding world entered my life and almost immediately, in my heart. Somehow, when I was younger, life always intervened and I never really made friends with books. But. Just like by magic, two months ago, I did it. And, just like magic, 10 million points for Gryffindor! “
Alia’s mother, Soni Razdan, immediately commented on her message, saying, “How wonderful.” Meanwhile, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, sister of Ranbir Kapoor (with whom Alia is dating), cheered on Alia with the flap and A-OK icons in the comments section.
This is how Alia left a hint on her Harry potter activity:
The book reading sessions for “Harry Potter at Home” were interestingly launched by actor Daniel Radcliffe, who played the main character on screen in all eight films in the series. The second chapter was read by Noma Dumezweni, who plays Hermione Granger in the play Harry Potter and the cursed child. Eddie Redmayne, who played Newt Scamander in Harry potter spin off series of Fantastic beasts movies, read the third chapter while Stephen Fry reads the next.
