Darlings was her maiden production venture under her home banner, Eternal Sunshine. She headlined the Netflix film with Shefali Shah and Vijay Varma. As Badru, Alia showed a dark, vulnerable and powerful side without losing her innocence. Alia again proved why she is the most versatile and can nail any character!
