Mahesh Bhatt's daughter Pooja Bhatt is known to break stereotypes right from the start of her career. Now in the role of filmmaker and producer, Pooja is not only busy with Sadak 2 with Sanjay Dutt in the lead but also plans to pen a book on her biggest struggle till date -alcoholism.
The actress has never shied away from admitting that how she was addicted to alcohol in her youth and she has often shares her journey of quitting alcohol on the radio show 'Bhatt Naturally' as well.
According to Deccan Chronicle report, Pooja is planning to release a book on her battle with alcohol. Unlike Karan Johar's book 'An Unsuitable Boy' and Soha Ali Khan's 'The Perils of Being Moderately famous,' Pooja has maintained that this book is not her autobiography. The report further suggests that the book has not got any title yet and will only focus on her journey through drinking problem and how she overcame it. Not just Pooja, her father Mahesh Bhatt also have been spotted at Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, trying to inspire others to kick the habit without going to a rehab.
Mahesh Bhatt admitted to giving up his drinking habit 28 years ago. Pooja quit drinking 14 months ago and even shared this news on Twitter. She wrote, “Thank you Lord for the courage to say NO and for the capacity to be able to start all over again if necessary. 445 days sober today & counting. Gratitude for the resilience and strength bestowed with every new step I take! #sobriety #recovery #claimyourjourney (sic),” she wrote.
Way to go girl.
