Parineeti Chopra is feeling competitive these days. Even though Alia Bhatt is her junior, Pari was heard talking about how Highway is getting tremendous buzz and Alia’s role is getting rave reviews from those who have seen it. A source reveals that the reason for her insecurity is that Parineeti is a huge Imitiaz Ali fan and was actually wanting to bag Highway, but lost it to Alia. Clearly, these two are the freshest faces who will compete with each other in the coming year for critical acclaim.
In fact, when Alia appeared on Koffee With Karan, and was asked about insecurity, she said, “There are times that you do feel insecure, and I feel that’s very important for me, because then I work harder.” When asked who makes her insecure, Alia didn’t hesitate to name Parineeti. “I think she’s fantastic. I think she’s so good that I wish I was that good. She’s so effortless, and her command over the language is something that I love.”
But later, when it was the rapid fire round, and Karan Johar asked Alia who she would gift the ‘Style for Dummies’ book to, Alia chose Parineeti, stating that she’s a good actor who could do better in the style zone.
