Last year, Alia Bhatt had baked a special cake for Ranbir Kapoor on his birthday, which falls on September 28. While his next birthday is still a month away, the Raazi actress is all set to make a pastry, this time to raise funds for a charity as part of Arjun Kapoor’s sister, Anshula Kapoor’s initiative, Fankind. The 26-year-old will invite her fans to ‘bake a cake’ with her. The fan has to transact for a minimum of Rs 300 or multiples thereof on the platform, and they will then stand a chance to have the experiential of making a cake with Alia. All proceeds will go to World For All that stands for the protection of stray animals.

When asked about interacting with her admirers, Alia says, “Fan love is so generous, they don’t even know us as individuals but yet there is so much fondness that inspires us to continue the good work. I still remember giving my first autograph to this little girl by the name of Sukham.”

A source informs that while shooting for the promo, the crew was seen arranging for two dozen cakes and cookies. After the shoot, the whole crew had a cake party. Anshula says, “Alia is extremely professional, arrives before time and whatever she does, it’s with all her heart. With this initiative, we want to bring smiles to the fans and give them the best experiences of their lives, while raising funds for multiple charities in India.”
