Pooja Bhatt speaks out after her & her father Mahesh Bhatt's kissing photo went viral: Shah Rukh Khan told me…’

Pooja Bhatt and her father Mahesh Bhatt posed for a picture that appeared on a magazine's cover in 1994, sparking a lot of controversy. Pooja was seen kissing her father in the photo, and at the time, this act of devotion aroused outrage among the general population.  Pooja Bhatt discussed the magazine cover and the photo with her father in a recent interview. She also shared advice Shah Rukh Khan once gave her on expressing affection.

Pooja Bhatt was questioned by Siddharth Kannan if she regrets the viral photo of her and Mahesh Bhatt sharing a kiss. In response, Pooja replied, “No, because I see it very simple, and I think that unfortunately jo hota hai, a frozen moment can be represented and misrepresented in any way. Aur mujhe yaad hai Shah Rukh ne mujhe yeh kaha tha when you have daughters, jab hi aapke bacche chote hai, how often child just say, ‘Mummy papa give me a kiss’. (I remember Shah Rukh once told me that when you have kids, often the child asks the parents to give them a kiss). And they go this way. Mai ab bhi is umar mein bhi wahi 10-pound ki bacchi hoon for my father. Vo zindagi bhar wahi rahege for me (Even at this age, I’m still the same 10-pound kid for my father. He will always remain the same for me).”

She further added that it was an absolutely innocent moment. “It was an innocent moment captured which has been connoted in so many ways. Jisko jo karna hai, woh karenge (people will do what they want to). I am not going to sit here and defend it. If someone can question a father-daughter bond like this, they are capable of thinking the worst,” she said.

Mahesh Bhatt's eldest child from his first marriage to Kiran Bhatt is Pooja Bhatt. Rahul Bhatt is another child they have. Shaheen and Alia Bhatt are the parents of Mahesh Bhatt's two children, whom he later wed in 1986.
