Alia Bhatt recalls her varmala ceremony

Talking about the Kudmayi music video, Alia spoke about a scene in which Rani's family members are seen hoisting her up during the varmala ritual while Rocky waits on his knees for her to adorn him with the garland. Alia highlighted how the specific sequence brought back memories of her wedding to Ranbir Kapoor where something similar happened at their wedding ceremony in Mumbai.

The actress recalled, “There’s a moment in the song, where Ranveer bends and puts his head ahead like that and lets me put the varmala on him, that moment actually happened with me. During my wedding, they lifted Ranbir but no one had lifted me. But then he only went down on his knees and I put the varmala. So, it was quite close to reality.” A video of the same is going viral on social media.
