At a recent book launch for the book, `Unchain My Heart`, Pooja opened up about her struggle with alcoholism, her marriage and Alia Bhatt!

Pooja Bhatt
Pooja Bhatt has always been a revered icon in the entertainment world. She carved a niche for herself while she was actively acting `bold` with her choices. She recently appeared on Bigg Boss OTT 2, gaining her a whole new demographic of fans. She kept it very real on the show, from voicing her opinions to opening up about her battle against alcoholism.
At a recent book launch for the book, `Unchain My Heart`, Pooja opened up about her struggle with alcoholism and she used it to cope with her life, saying, “I used alcohol as a band aid, I was trapped and I was chained. First into being a good wife and then getting my gratification with a bottle. I asked myself what is the difference between a bad relationship and a bottle. I was using both to numb the pain. So, I learnt to deal with myself, my anguish and my emptiness and from that something magical emerged. I kicked the bottle and it has been seven years since I have been sober.”
