Known for not playing by the books, Bollywood actor Alia Bhatt dons a new hat as a storyteller. In her recent debut novel, ‘Ed Finds a Home,’ Bhatt merges reality with fantasy, tracing the outdoor adventures of a young girl (with supernatural powers) and her canine companion (a rescued pup). As we turn pages, nature personifies as a talking tree, a chatty crow, whispering birds and grumbling leaves. Turning into an animated, talking universe.
Together, the two duo forges a connection with their surroundings in a deep, intimate way which as Bhatt, puts, “is to encourage kids to interact with nature through outdoor activities and reading.” In an exclusive interaction with Midday, the actor-entrepreneur tells us about the book`s genesis, how Raha (her daughter) inspires her storytelling, reflections from Alia’s childhood that find a space in the book and her upcoming plans for "Ed-a-Mamma."
