Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt, who received the Best Actress award at the 69th National Film Awards for her performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi, attended the ceremony on Tuesday. Held in the national capital, the ceremony was attended by President Droupadi Murmu. Information and Broadcasting minister Anurag Thakur was also present on the occasion.
The actress was accompanied to the award ceremony by her husband and actor Ranbir Kapoor. The actor was seen wearing a black outfit. But what netizens are gushing about is an image that has now gone viral. It shows that as Alia goes up the stage to receive the honour from the president, hubby Ranbir is busy beaming and recording the moment on his mobile camera. Fans are just not getting over how adorable and "genuine" the gesture is. Here is how an X (formerly Twitter) user reacted:
