Because i think she is actually talented, Now it’s a investment that’s yielding results for Kjo. In the past few years she has given very less bad performances (Not talking about niche but popular opinion here ) When a director/ producer works with her , it’s kind of a surety the movie is a hit. In 90s and early 2000s many actors had this much credibility but now hardly 1 or 2. So yea it’s a give and take. Also it seems she is a good mentee and follower. While Sid and Varun come across as people with mind and ego of their own, Alia seems someone who can take orders and follow as is.
