Early and personal life
Bhatt was born on March 15, 1997, in Srinagar, India and hails from a Muslim family.[3]
In November 2025, a legal controversy erupted concerning statements made about Bhatt by Roshan Garry Bhinder, the aunt of Bigg Boss 19 co-contestant Amaal Mallik, where Bhinder referred to Bhatt using the term "terrorist" on the YouTube channel Fifafooz.[4] Bhatt's family initiated legal action against Bhinder, Fifafooz and YouTube India and characterized the comments as "defamatory and communally charged," expressing deep distress over the "outrageous and baseless allegation." The legal notice demanded the immediate removal of the controversial video, a public apology from the involved parties, and ₹1 crore in damages for the alleged reputational and emotional harm caused to Bhatt.[5]
Activism
In her capacity as a Commonwealth Youth Council executive, she organized and led a seminar and cultural programme in New Delhi, India, on the occasion of the 31st World Disability Day, focusing on "Amplifying the Leadership of Youth with Disabilities."[6]
