Historically, actresses were either the "vamp" (who kissed) or the "virgin" (who didn't). Alia Bhatt has demolished that binary. In Udta Punjab , she played a traumatized victim; in Gully Boy , a fierce girlfriend; in Gangubai Kathiawadi , a brothel madame with a heart of gold. When she participates in a kissing scene, it is never gratuitous. It serves the character.
