With her first international role, Bollywood superstar Alia Bhatt plays Keya Dhawan, a woman with unmatched intellect and fierce determination. Being a part of a film like this and breaking into the global market was an incredible opportunity for Alia.
Talking about working with Gal Gadot, Alia said, "For me, this was a super huge opportunity, my first Hollywood film. And having seen Gal's exceptional work, I knew this project was something special. The idea of being part of a spy thriller with a female lead, a woman like Gal, was incredibly exciting. And I was even more thrilled when I got to know that Jamie would be joining the team too."
She further stated, "Gal is such a loving person, and her energy is so warm. When I'm around her, I feel like I've known her for a very long time. It's like we instantly clicked, and that comfort translated onto the screen,"
She also talked about Jamie Dornan and expressed, “Working with Jamie, I’ve basically shot almost every day with him now, and it’s easy. Jamie is super funny and very fun to work with on this film. We’re doing all these intense moments where the stakes are really high, but off camera we’re giggling, chatting, and the mood is extremely light. That contrast is really interesting, and he’s a fabulous actor as well, very subtle, but his eyes are extremely expressive. Working with him was really fun and easy.”
Helmed by Tom Harper, Heart of Stone also stars Paul Ready, Matthias Schweighofer, and Jing Lusi in pivotal roles. The plot centres around Rachel Stone, an intelligence agent employed by the peacekeeping agency Charter. In the film, Bhatt's character steals the Heart, a technological core, from the organization, leading to a thrilling tale of action and drama.
