Watch: Here’s Why Alia- Ranbir’s Ayodhya Darshan Is Melting Hearts

Amidst the joyous throngs of devotees celebrating the Ram Mandir consecration, Bollywood power couple Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt were among the 8000 invited dignitaries of the grandeur event to spectate the 'Pran Pratishta' ceremony held on January 22.

Why Ranbir Kapoor Is Winning Hearts Over This Viral Video From Ayodhya

In a viral video, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt were spotted waiting in a tightly packed queue inside the temple premises to catch a glimpse of Ram Lalla, surrounded by a sea of devotees. Other celebrities like Madhuri Dixit and many others were also seen struggling in the queue. 

As Bhatt can be seen distressed in the crowd and pushing, she was protectively held tightly in the arms of Kapoor, who was making their way forward for the darshan amidst the pushing from the huge crowds. 

The couple, dressed in traditional attire for the occasion, were seen patiently waiting their turn to glimpse the newly consecrated idol of Ram Lalla. However, the sheer volume of devotees eager for darshan made the queue a tight squeeze. In a video clip, Ranbir can be seen placing a reassuring hand on Alia's back and keeping her close as they inch forward, his gaze attentive to her well-being. Alia, while maintaining her composure, appears visibly tense in the face of the pushing and shoving.

The incident has sparked mixed reactions online. Many fans praised Kapoor for his protective gesture towards Bhatt, calling him a "true gentleman" and appreciating his understanding of the challenges faced by celebrities in such crowded spaces. Others expressed concern for Alia's well-being and highlighted the importance of crowd management at religious events to ensure everyone's safety and comfort.

This brief moment captured in the queue offers a glimpse into the unique experiences celebrities encounter while participating in public events, particularly those with strong religious significance. While Ranbir and Alia's darshan may not have been as serene as they might have hoped, their presence at the Ram Mandir consecration underlines their faith and respect for the sacred occasion.
