About Ida Ali
Ida Ali has followed her father’s footsteps into filmmaking. She has directed projects like Maya, Lift, and Thai Massage. In 2024, Imtiaz Ali called his daughter a “fine filmmaker”. In an interview with ETimes, Imtiaz had said, “Ida and I have been collaborating since the time she was born, that’s because she has been addicted to stories and has forced me to tell her one story every night when I used to put her to sleep. So, we have a relationship of stories, and at some point, she began telling me stories. Every story I’ve made, especially from Tamasha and even before that, she would be lening to them while in the house, and then more actively giving ideas, reactions, and feedback.”

Back in 2022, in an exclusive interview with SCREEN, Ida had spoken about her father and said, “Firstly, the biggest contribution from my family in terms of filmmaking is not just that I have a father who is a filmmaker, but I was surrounded sets all the time. I used to go on location and hang out in the production room and the office. Dinner table conversations were about films. We used to discuss tiny details of films as well. The perception is that because I am Imtiaz Ali’s daughter, I have some kind of credibility. I don’t think that would be the case for creative professionals because they see quality. I feel like I have to do my best to prove myself now. Some people will be like I am here just because of him, and that I don’t have that much substance. So I have to constantly prove that I have substance. Of course, there is baggage and a lot of pressure. But then, how can this job not have pressure?”
On the work front, Imtiaz Ali’s last film, Main Vaapas Aunga released in June. The film received great reviews and also performed well at the box office. Main Vaapas Aunga stars Vedang Raina, Sharvari, Diljit Dosanjh, and Naseeruddin Shah in important roles.
