There should be and at least I am not bothered by that and I don't think Salman or Bhansali sir are bothered." said Alia Bhatt.
"I think this is a filmmaker who has given us very good films, he is someone who we all are very fond of and I think we should just trust him with his vision," Kalank actress added.
