Alia Bhatt Brand Endorsements

It's not uncommon to see a well-known celebrity on your screens endorsing some brand or their products. However, it's not as simple as it looks that a celebrity has been roped in easily by the advertisers. There is a tough competition that happens at the back-end. With this dual competition within various advertisers and among celebrities, a brand chooses its face. The factors that are taken into consideration while choosing a face for one's brand are social relevance, commercial appeal, and brand value. And undoubtedly, B-Town's bubbly, Alia Bhatt with her skyrocketing career is the best among others to suit all these criteria for the advertisers these days.
