Alia Bhatt's sister is Shaheen Bhatt, who is an accomplished filmmaker and author in her own right. Shaheen recently became trending because of major personal news. As of April 17, 2026, Shaheen got engaged to Ishaan Mehra, and she announced this beautiful moment on Instagram with a series of romantic photos. The engagement caption was particularly cute: "We may have overdone this whole liking each other thing."
Shaheen's engagement has been trending because, first, she's a public figure in her own right. She's worked on films like "Ayesha" and has been active in the Indian film industry. Second, the announcement was particularly heartwarming because Shaheen had previously dated comedian Rohan Joshi, and many were invested in her personal life. Third, Alia Bhatt's emotional response to the news made the moment even more touching. Alia posted in the comments, "Spamming you with my love," and reshared Shaheen's post with "Currently weeping," which resonated with people.
