Ali Zafar is very much there in 'Dear Zindagi,' confirms Alia Bhatt

Quashing all the rumours about replacing Ali Zafar from Gauri Shinde's 'Dear Zindagi,' Alia Bhatt recently stated that nobody is being replaced in the film.

"Nobody is being replaced. The film will release in its full form. At this point there is no such discussion on who is being replaced and who is not. So we can leave the edge of that topic at this point, since anyway it has died down," she told media here.

Rumours started doing the rounds post MNS protest against the Pakistani artists' involvement with the Indian film industry, in the backdrop of the deadly Uri attack in September.

Further during the interaction, when the 'Highway' actress was asked about her dream man, she said that she wants a man who is funny and responsible.

"By the time I get a life partner, I hope he won't be a youth icon then; as I myself won't be youthful then. I am a youth now. It does not matter if the life partner is hot or not, what matters is the fact that he is good or not, funny or not, responsible or not. He should be sweet and should love me a lot," she said.

On the work front, Alia's 'Dear Zindagi,' also starring Shah Rukh Khan will hit the theatres on November 25. She will also be seen in upcoming flick 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania,' alongside Varun Dhawan.
