Mahesh Bhatt is a renowned name in Indian cinema. But it is not only his movies that have been in the public eye—his life and his relationships with his children have also been subject to much speculation. He has married twice and has four children: Pooja Bhatt and Rahul Bhatt from his first marriage to Kiran Bhatt, and Shaheen Bhatt and Alia Bhatt from his second marriage to Soni Razdan.

While Shaheen chose a different path, becoming a mental health advocate, the three Bhatt siblings chose to make their name in Bollywood. Of course, only two of them succeeded—Pooja and Alia. Rahul never receives much attention, and when he does, it is usually due to other factors, primarily controversies. He recently gained attention for comparing Alia with Pooja. During this, he claimed that Pooja Bhatt is way more talented than Alia and that she is the one who carried forward their family’s legacy.

She has got talent. She has the universe with her. She understands PR. She has everything, and when you have everything, the universe conspires to make it happen.

However, after this, Rahul went on to make a bold claim, saying that Alia is not as talented as his sister Pooja. He added that Pooja continued Mahesh Bhatt’s legacy. Speaking about this, he said,

In my opinion, she is not even half of what my real sister Pooja is. Not in talent, not in looks, not in terms of being sexy. In front of my sister, she is ‘paani kam chai (not as good).’ Amongst the siblings, the most talented and the most moralistic is Pooja.

Regarding the legacy of Mahesh Bhatt, Rahul Bhatt stated that Pooja Bhatt truly continued it. He said,

Pooja took my father’s legacy ahead. I saw her in her stardom. She was the biggest sex symbol of the country then.

He discussed how the incident affected him, pointing out that kids from film families frequently encounter prejudice and difficulties. Speaking about this, he said,

I must’ve been 13-14. Woh sab cheez humare mein dekho kya hai hai, vo film parivaar ke bacche na ya toh bohot messed up hotey hai ya toh bohot majboot hotey hai. Toh kuch cheezon mei toh mai bohot (majboot hu). Kuch farak nahi padta hai. It’s like whatever.

Rahul Bhatt earlier claimed that his father, Mahesh Bhatt, had neglected him

Meanwhile, this is not the first time Rahul has courted controversy because of his sharp tongue. In an interview with TOI in 2012, Rahul Bhatt talked about how he felt his father, Mahesh Bhatt, had neglected him. He said,

My father Mahesh Bhatt never treated me like his own child. It’s the raw uncut truth about my relationship with my father.

Rahul Bhatt continued the conversation by saying that he had bonded with David Headley because of the carelessness he experienced at home. TOI quoted him as saying,

Perhaps if Mr Mahesh Bhatt had been a father to me I wouldn’t have got into the friendship with Headley. My childhood insecurities, the lack of a father figure in my growing years were lacunas in my life that Mr Headley used to win over my confidence. I was vulnerable. I had no father to guide me in my growing years.

For those who are unaware, the biggest controversy involving Rahul Bhatt was his alleged friendship with David Coleman Headley, a Pakistani-American who was instrumental in organizing the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks. Unaware of Headley’s true identity, Rahul became friends with him after meeting him in a Mumbai gym. Rahul acknowledged knowing Headley after his arrest but maintained he was unaware of his ties to terrorism.

The matter gained a lot of attention in the media. Despite Rahul’s acquittal, the incident had a lasting impact on his public image.
