Glitterati and gorgeous, the Bollywood fraternity is more than just that. With great acting skills and talents up their sleeve, a few of them are related too. (Now that answers your questions of where similar traits and acting genes came from, yes?)
On the occasion of Rakshabandhan, we did a little research on these stars and here’s what we found:
Alia Bhatt and Emraan Hashmi
Great movies, great music and great actors; Emraan Hashmi and Alia Bhatt belong to the Bhatt clan and he also happens to be Alia’s elder cousin.
