Alia Bhatt’s hotel note in Cannes addresses her as ‘Alia Kapoor’, fans speculate whether the actress has changed her surname | Bollywood News

Alia Bhatt, who recently marked her Cannes debut, shared a video of her time at the International Film Festival and her transition through her many outfits. While, her video exhilarated her fans who “missed” her YouTube content, some eagle eyed fans noticed the change in her surname as it read, “Alia Kapoor”.
In a nearly five-minute-long video, Alia gave a glimpse of her time at Cannes. While she was seen getting her makeup done under the guidance of her styl Rhea Kapoor for her many looks, a part of the video featured the welcome note the hotel she stayed at. It read, “Dear Alia Kapoor”. This prompted many of her fans to think whether she has legally adopted her husband Ranbir Kapoor’s surname, dropping Bhatt.
A screenshot of the same was shared a Reddit user which attracted a lot of attention. A user speculated, “Must’ve taken her husband’s name and kept Bhatt for her public facing career since she is widely known that surname.” Others expressed, “It’s her choice to keep whatever last name she likes, buttt I really think Alia Bhatt has more ring to it. Alia Kapoor just sounds so basic. I think there must be an alia Kapoor in every block of South Delhi. I hope she never changes this publicly at least.”

Another user took a wild guess and wrote, “Someone pointed out here that it’s a French Hotel, so probably took her name from there which means that She’s legally taken the name Alia Kapoor.” Another comment read, “How will a hotel in France know her husband’s surname? Anyway, hotel booking is done according to your legal name on IDs.”
In the video, Alia Bhatt was seen having a fun banter with Rhea Kapoor and her team. Expressing her feelings of debuting at Cannes, Alia shared, “I am both excited and nervous.” In the video, the actress was seen signing autographs for her non-Indian fans and also adhering to their photo request.
