Pooja Bhatt, who was recently seen in Bigg Boss OTT season 2, has been making some shocking revelations about her life and addressing the controversies surrounding her. Pooja is Alia Bhatt’s half-sister, and the duo has an age difference of about 21 years. While Pooja and Alia are daughters of Mahesh Bhatt, rumours had it that Alia is Pooja's daughter. Now, Pooja finally reacted to the speculations for the first time and called them absurd.
In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Pooja Bhatt was asked to address these rumours and she called them idiotic. Taking a dig at the gossipmongers, she added that these rumours have been part and parcel of Indian society for a long time as people always talk about somebody’s relationship with the other person. Pooja said:
“Ye toh humare desh mein bahut purani cheez hai. Start talking about somebody’s relationship with their daughter or with their bhabhi or with their sister or with their whatever. Now, how do you counteract that? Ke aap iss cheez ko dignity bhi de sakte hai respond kar ke? It is absurd."

Back in 2014, Alia Bhatt also talked about her relationship with her step-sister, Pooja Bhatt and shared that she is never bothered by the fact that the latter is not her real sister, as they are all a family. She also added that the Bhatt family is so real that they genuinely like to spend time with each other without putting a facade on their faces. She was quoted as saying:
“Actually recently it’s become much better. We have gotten close as a family. People would always say that you have a step-sister, stepmother, and all that but it never bothered me. Because our family is so real and honest with each other. There is no façade or fakeness. So when we spend time with each other, we genuinely like to spend time with each other.”
