A video showcasing the full front view of Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s newly constructed six-storey bungalow in Bandra recently went viral on social media. The luxury residence, reportedly worth around ₹250 crore, instantly caught attention online. However, the unauthorized filming of the under-construction property has not gone down well with Alia, who called it a “clear invasion of privacy” and a “serious security issue.”
Alia Bhatt’s Strong Statement
On Tuesday, Alia issued a detailed statement on social media, condemning the circulation of the video. She stressed that while Mumbai’s lack of space often means homes are closely situated, this does not give anyone the right to film private residences.
“A video of our home – still under construction – has been recorded and circulated without our knowledge or consent. This is a violation. Filming someone’s personal space is not content – it’s a breach of privacy,” she wrote.
She further appealed to media outlets and individuals to take down the video, urging fans not to share such content further. “Think about it: would you tolerate videos of the inside of your home being shared publicly? None of us would,” she added.
Fans Rally in Support
Alia’s statement immediately drew support from fans. Many echoed her sentiments, with comments such as, “Privacy comes first always,” and “Unethical.” Others stressed that regardless of celebrity status, personal boundaries must be respected.
About the Dream Home
Located in Bandra’s upscale Pali Hill area, the property originally belonged to Ranbir’s grandparents, Raj and Krishna Raj Kapoor, before being inherited by Rishi and Neetu Kapoor in 1980. Construction has been underway for years, with the family often spotted at the site.
Upcoming Projects
On the work front, Alia and Ranbir will reunite in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love And War. Alia also has YRF’s Alpha, while Ranbir is gearing up for Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana.
