'When are we getting married?' Ranbir Kapoor asks Alia Bhatt

Actors address crowd at their upcoming film 'Brahmastra's motion poster launch

After several Covid-induced delays, Ayan Mukherjee’s Indian superhero film, Brahmastra, will finally hit the cinemas in September 2022. Based on Indian mythology, the magnum opus stars Bollywood A-listers Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, and Alia Bhatt.

On Wednesday, the crew gathered in New Delhi to unveil the first look of the motion poster for the film, and while it was much loved, lovebirds Ranbir and Alia stole the show with their public display of affection (PDA).

During the promotions at the event, the Rockstar actor teased his girlfriend about her connection with the letter ‘R’, a question she was posed earlier at the trailer launch of SS Rajamouli’s RRR. “Why do people keep asking you about R?” he quipped. Alia couldn’t help but blush at his question.

With the crowd cheering and Ranbir’s consistent prodding, the Highway starlet responded in a sly manner. “Truth ye hai ki R meri life ka sabse bada (The truth is that R is the biggest),” taking a dramatic pause, she further added “Number 8 hai,” she continued, making a reference to the number on his football jersey and his favourite number, in general.

In response, Alia threw the same question at her beau, asking about the significance of the letter ‘A’ in his life. Ranbir, further teased her, and said, “A means Amitabh Bachchan” referring to his co-star in the film. As Alia rolled her eyes at him, he turned serious, as if about to give the answer she wants (and all of us too), he said, “A means Ayan Mukherjee”, the director of their film.

Their coy and cute high school romance definitely warmed fans’ hearts. The never-ending discussion about their wedding also made its way at the launch during a Q&A session with fans. The Wake-Up Sid actor read a question about their marriage and said, "Haven't we seen a lot of people getting married in the last one year? I think we should be happy with that." Only minutes later, he turned to his girlfriend, and asked her, “When are we getting married?”

Before we could get any answers, the filmmaker dodged the question saying, “One date reveal is enough for today”, referring to Brahmastra’s release next year.
