It is Alia Bhatt's world and we are just living in it. The actress has recently been all over the Internet, mostly for her stunning debut at the Cannes Film Festival 2025 and let's say – she ate. Beyond her breathtaking appearances and undeniable acting skills, it is her honest responses during the candid chats that often grab fans' attention and we have solid proof. Here we take a trip down memory lane to recall her answer when she was questioned about her 'dark side" in an interview.
Alia Bhatt was speaking to Filmfare when she made an interesting revelation. The actress admitted to being part of the family's WhatsApp group, The Bhatt Camp, and further shared that each member regularly shares quotes in the chatbox. During the same conversation, she was questioned whether she had a dark side and her honest response won hearts. Alia said, 'Everybody has it," and followed it with a quote that is nothing short of a major life lesson. The quote says, 'If there's no darkness, how are you going to appreciate the light?"
Alia Bhatt is busier than ever these days. Just days after attending the prestigious film festival at the French Riviera, the actress headed to Spain to join her girl gang for the wedding of her best friend, Tanya Saha Gupta. An unseen video from the wedding surfaced online, giving fans a glimpse of the actress as she enjoyed her time at the ceremony. Dressed in an ethnic outfit – a colourful lehenga, she served boho chic vibes and wore a bandana.

Le'Veon Bell shares unfiltered thoughts on Brittany Mahomes' ‘resting b*tch face' moment with Patrick Mahomes
Le'Veon Bell reacts hilariously to Brittany Mahomes' resurfaced clip (Instagram) Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany are used to the spotlight—but it's how they embrace it that keeps fans so connected to them. Whether they're celebrating major milestones or sharing lighthearted moments, the Mahomeses have a way of making the extraordinary feel deeply relatable. A recent viral moment has only added to their reputation as a couple who stays real, even when the cameras are on. Le'Veon Bell confesses his love for Brittany Mahomes after viral 'resting b*tch face' video resurfaces online A resurfaced video from a 2022 Texas Tech basketball game has found its way back into social media feeds—and people can't stop smiling. In the clip, Brittany is captured joking around with a friend courtside, saying, "Patrick told me no resting b*tch face." The moment quickly took off online, with former NFL star Le'Veon Bell reacting with laughter on X, saying, "lol she funny af." It's a glimpse into their genuine dynamic—fun, candid, and unapologetically themselves. The Mahomeses' love for sports goes beyond the NFL field. Whether it's college basketball or pro games, Patrick and Brittany are often seen cheering passionately from the stands. Their energy is contagious, and their courtside banter only makes them more endearing to fans. But their influence isn't limited to sports. Both Brittany and Patrick recently showed public admiration for Taylor Swift after the pop star announced she had reclaimed the master rights to her first six albums—ending a long and personal battle for control over her creative work. Brittany shared Swift's Instagram post with the words, 'Just so amazing,' while Patrick reposted the news with silent but meaningful support. This shared celebration of Swift's achievement speaks volumes about the values the Mahomeses hold—independence, resilience, and respect for personal agency. Even with their close friendship with Swift and Travis Kelce , they've reportedly chosen to keep political conversations out of their circle, focusing instead on mutual respect and shared experiences. Meanwhile, empowerment runs deep in the Mahomes family. Patrick's mother, Randi Mahomes, is carving her own impactful path with the launch of the Sports Parent Academy. Drawing from her personal journey of raising Patrick as a single mom working two jobs, Randi created a platform to help other parents support their aspiring athletes. On Instagram, she shared the heartfelt reason behind the project: "When Patrick was being recruited, I was working two jobs and trying to figure it all out as a single mom. I didn't always know what to do and that's why I made this." The Mahomes family continues to inspire—through humor, authenticity, and heartfelt purpose. Their growing influence is not just a product of NFL stardom, but a reflection of the genuine people they are behind the scenes.
