Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are getting married in a low-key ceremony at their residence in Pali Hill on Thursday, within the presence of their closest family and friends members. The couple’s marriage ceremony is happening just some days earlier than the second loss of life anniversary of Ranbir’s father, veteran actor Rishi Kapoor. On the event, Rishi’s older brother Randhir mentioned that they’re “missing him more.”
Randhir, who was clicked arriving on the marriage ceremony venue earlier right now, advised Hindustan Times, “We are all so happy that they are getting married today. It is a very happy and joyous moment for us. To be honest, everyone is emotional today as well.”

Randhir added, “It is a big day for the family, and Chintu should have been here. We miss him every day, but today we are missing him more. But life goes on. It is nice to see Ranbir and Alia starting this new chapter. Hope Rishi would have been here to witness this moment. I am missing him so much today.”
Just a few weeks in the past, in the course of the promotions of Rishi’s final movie Sharmaji Namkeen, Ranbir had mentioned that his uncle Randhir has dementia. Ranbir advised NDTV, “My uncle Randhir Kapoor, who is going through an early stage of dementia, and he came to me after the film, said, ‘Tell dad that he is amazing, and where is he, let’s call him’. Art crosses boundaries of medical conditions… And a good piece of storytelling really embodies that.”
Randhir later denied this. When requested why Ranbir would say so, the veteran actor advised ETimes, “Ranbir ki marzi.” Rishi Kapoor died after a protracted battle with most cancers on April 30, 2020.
