Pooja Bedi's daughter Alaya F, who made her debut in Bollywood this year with Jawaani Janemann, opens up about her role to a leading daily. Alaya played the role of Saif Ali Khan's daughter and a pregnant teenager in the film. It was quite a different role for her to play in her debut movie and the actress revealed that it took quite a time for her to accept her role. She said, "That I looked cute with a pregnant belly. It was a very real-looking, heavy prosthetic belly which gave me a backache. I was excited about getting pregnant till I realised the abs I’d taken months to acquire would be covered up.”

Alaya F has maintained her abs through the rigorous workout and to be not able to flaunt that inher debut film was a setback for the actress. Since the audience loved her acting skills as per her first film, Alaya said, "Not one criticism for my performance; it was too good to be true! So then, the hunt began for one bad review, even among the YouTube trolls.” Adding further about not being able to work due to the lockdown, she said, "There was a lot of guilt associated with being unproductive. Now, there’s no choice, so I’m working on my art, cleaning out cupboards, learning to play the piano and cook.”
