MUMBAI: Alia Bhatt’s mother, and veteran actress, Soni Razdan, decided to share a piece of her family history amidst the ongoing atrocities in Palestine.
Razdan revealed that at the time when concentration camps were booming against Jews in Germany, her grandfather ran an underground newspaper against Hitler.
She wrote on her IG, "In this, very terrifying and uncertain atmosphere, he had the courage to run an underground newspaper against Hitler. They distributed it as widely as they could, and of course the inevitable happened... One day he was found out. They arrested him. He was thrown into prison and later into the concentration camp."
Razdan added that, having good lawyers on his side, her grandfather was eventually released but was asked to never set foot in Germany again.
