We Finally Know How Alia & Ranbir’s Song Kesariya Is Related To Their Lucky Number 8 & It’s Adorbs

Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have been flooding our social media feeds of late. The two were seen out and about promoting their newly-launched song, Kesariya on Sunday. The song created quite a storm and the internet is buzzing with memes. Well, no publicity is bad publicity, right? Memes and jokes apart, the internet has been swooning over their sizzling chemistry and the #RanAlia fan club simply cannot keep calm!

Amidst the release of the song, director Ayan Mukerji recently went live on Instagram with Alia Bhatt. Fans were taken by surprise when Ranbir took over Alia’s frame and joined the session. The couple indulged in a candid convo along with their director wherein they promoted the song and spoke about life after marriage. 

During the live, Ranbir Kapoor mentioned that Kesariya is special in more than one way. He said that it symbolises their off-screen chemistry, which is just as pure as the lyrics of the song. They also stated that for the longest time they did not have a song for their relationship. Alia mentioned that Ranbir even asked her, “Alia, what’s our song?” when they were having lunch at Masai Mara. However, the couple’s search for a song has ended. Alia stated, “Now we have Kesariya and it’s special.”

We all know that the number 8 is very special for the couple. It signifies their relationship and it looks like the infinity sign. The actress also got the number written in her bridal mehendi, mangalsutra and kaleeras. The song was released on July 17, which also adds up to the couple’s lucky number making it even more special. 

Throughout the live session, we simply could not stop gushing over the couple’s cuteness! While Alia kept glancing at her husband with lovestruck eyes, Ranbir could not stop himself from showering praises on his wife. He said that he was blown away by Alia Bhatt’s performance in Imtiaz Ali’s film Highway. “When I saw Highway and all, I came to Ayan’s house where only Ayan and Karan were hanging there and (told them), ‘Buddy ye toh Amitabh Bachchan nikli (She turned out to be like Amitabh Bachchan)’. And in her second film!” he said. The actor added that if he continues to praise his ‘biwi’, then people won’t take him seriously. And of course, Alia couldn’t help but gush ‘Aww’ throughout! 

On a personal note, the couple is over the moon as they’re expecting their first child together. The live session was flooded with comments as fans spotted Alia Bhatt’s pregnancy glow in a blue dress that she teamed with an orange knitted cardigan. 

While Ranbir Kapoor fans simply cannot wait to see the actor in Shamshera after his four-year-long break, the #RanAlia fan club is eagerly waiting to see the couple for the first time together onscreen in Brahmastra!
