Actor Alia Bhatt, who made her Bollywood debut with Karan Johar's ' Student Of The Year' in 2012, says she was paid Rs.15 lakh for the film. But, instead of using her first pay cheque, she handed it over to her mother Soni. “I deposited the cheque straight to my mother and very nicely said, ‘Mamma, you handle the money’. Till date, my mother handles my money,” she told Mid Day.
