He explained that, having collaborated closely with Bhatt on Highway, he felt compelled to defend her when he believed the criticism was needlessly toxic. \u201cI\u2019ve never had any quarrels with Kangana, but I did feel she was unnecessarily targeting Alia. Because of Highway, I\u2019ve always felt a strong connection with her.
