Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor’s wedding bells set to echo loudly in Pakistan

<p>
Guess what is trending in Pakistan ? It is not Imran Khan who was ousted from power on April 9. Instead, it is the marriage of Bollywood actors Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor. Pakistani media has been providing saturation coverage, which so far has focused on the build up to the  mehndi ceremony. </p>
<p>
“The couple will be reunited in the next few days. After the henna ceremony which was held on April 13, the couple's turmeric(haldi) ceremony will be on April 14 and the wedding will take place on April 17 and  Alia and Ranbir will give a grand reception on April 17 at the iconic Taj hotel,” reports Samaa TV of Pakistan.</p>

<p>
“Ranbir was clicked smoking with Pakistani actor Mihira Khan on the streets of New York. Soon after their images went viral, speculations were made that the two were dating each other,” says the report.</p>

<p>
Pakistanis love the bride to be Alia Bhatt as well. Her blockbuster Raazi was banned in Pakistan but the film received unprecedented appreciation from Pakistanis. </p>
<p>
Pakistan’s top movie critic and celebrity writer Mahwash Ajaz had tweeted then that “I am sitting near the world's loudest popcorn munchers and it's amazing that there was pin drop silence when Alia's character, Sehmat, is doing spy-ey things in full spy mode. She looks beautiful and the film overall is well-made. A refreshing takes on nationalism, the film doesn’t demonise India’s adversaries by paying heed to their patriotism towards their own country.”</p>
