Emotional Alia comforted by dad Mahesh Bhatt

Actress Alia Bhatt is emotional after wrapping up the filming of "2 States". Father-filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt tried to comfort her with his encouraging words.

"Last day of '2 States'! It's been beautiful and exciting. Will miss playing the Ananya Swaminathan. Too emotional today,` Alia tweeted Sunday.

Dad Mahesh Bhat encouraged her by replying to her post: `My experience says that when the principal actor 'weeps' when a film is over, the maker smiles. This means your film is a hit.`

Alia, who will be seen as a Tamil Iyengar girl in the movie, based on Chetan Bhagat's novel "2 States: The Story of My Marriage", hopes to weep for sure.
Well I hope I weep today then like I always do. Love you,` posted the actress.

Directed by Abhishek Verman, the story is about a Punjabi boy who falls in love with a Tamil girl, and the ensuing cultural clashes between them and their families.
