Alia Bhatt Seeks Parenting Advice from Sadhguru

New Delhi, March 28, 2026: Amidst the glitz of the film industry and the demands of global stardom, actress Alia Bhatt recently took a moment to pivot toward the spiritual. Attending a high-profile event in Chennai on March 26, 2026, the Jigra star engaged in a candid and soul-stirring conversation with spiritual leader Sadhguru, focusing on a topic close to her heart: the journey of raising her daughter, Raha.

The interaction, which took place during the launch of JITO Ladies Connect (Jain International Trade Organization) at the Leela Palace, has since gone viral, offering a rare glimpse into the “relatable” anxieties of one of India’s most successful actors.

“A Worried Parent is Not a Good Parent”

As a mother to three-year-old Raha, Alia didn’t shy away from expressing the modern-day pressures of parenthood. During the “In Conversation with the Mystic” session, she posed a poignant question to Sadhguru:

“Your one advice to a parent who’s worried if they’re being a good parent would be?”

Sadhguru’s response was both immediate and characteristically blunt: “A worried parent is not a good parent.”

While the audience erupted in laughter at the unexpected wit, Alia reflected the sentiments of millions of parents by pushing back gently. She tilted her head and replied, “I don’t think you can take worry out of it. I think you’d admit.”

Sadhguru elaborated on his philosophy, suggesting that parenting should be about joy and presence rather than a constant state of anxiety. He emphasized that children absorb the energy of those around them; thus, a parent’s primary “job” is to maintain their own inner balance.

Style Meets Spirituality

Alia Bhatt’s appearance at the event was a masterclass in the “soft-girl” aesthetic. Stepping away from the high-octane glamour of the red carpet, she chose a:

• Mint Green Organza Saree: Featuring delicate floral embroidery.
• Minimalist Accents: A stunning Kundan choker and simple gold earrings.
• Natural Look: Loose, center-parted waves and subtle, glowing makeup.

Before the session began, the duo was seen in a quiet moment of prayer, a scene shared by Sadhguru on his social media that fans described as “ethereal” and “deeply calming.”

Balancing the Spotlight with Motherhood

Since the birth of Raha in November 2022, Alia and husband Ranbir Kapoor have been vocal about their “tag-team” approach to parenting, ensuring one of them is always present with their daughter. However, Alia has recently become more protective of their privacy, especially following recent security concerns in the industry involving other high-profile families.

Despite her domestic focus, her professional slate remains packed. Fans can look forward to:

• Alpha: The YRF Spy Universe’s first female-led thriller (releasing July 10, 2026).
• Love & War: A grand cinematic venture with Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal.

The Takeaway

The Chennai event served as a reminder that even for a “Global Star,” the questions of the heart—especially regarding family—remain universal. By seeking spiritual guidance, Alia continues to evolve her narrative from a “Student of the Year” to a mindful, modern parent.
