Pooja Bedi's daughter and Kabir Bedi's granddaughter Alaya F is making her Bollywood debut in Saif Ali Khan and Tabu starrer Jawaani Jaaneman. We chatted with Alaya about the film that brings a variety of taboo topics such as bearing a love child, teenage pregnancy and gender fluidity to the fore in a fun and a slice-of-life manner. "Saif Ali Khan is NOT playing my sugar daddy in this fun film as many would assume," insists Alaya.

"I was shocked to see some comments on social media where many assumed that Saif Ali Khan is playing my sugar daddy. He is playing my dad, that's about it. The film is not dark at all. In fact, its a slice-of-life take on the way complex urban relationships function and their dynamics," added the young actor. Saif Ali Khan's Quote on Ibrahim, Taimur And Club Girls Proves What a Cool Dad He Is!

In this exclusive conversation with Latestly, Alaya discusses working with Saif Ali Khan (Who in turn has confessed that working with this talented girl was  as good an experience as working with Shah Rukh Khan, given her confidence and the preparations). Alaya is also seen playing a fun rapid segment where she gives her take on the risque elements the life dishes out which are interestingly shown in the movie.

About her esteemed lineage Alaya maintains that most people she meets fall into two straight categories. " The men I  meet  talk about my mother's hot and bold quotient and the women I meet tell me how hot my grandfather is, But I want to be know for my acting skills. Hotness, beauty and attractions will come and go," quips Alaya. Watch the full interview above and share you views in the comment section.
