In her speech, Alia had said, "She's the glue that holds us all together. She has the most perfect, special, individual relationship with every girl in the group and she always shows up. Which is why today when she showed up, walking down this beautiful aisle, looking like a dream, of course I was looking at her but I first looked at Shari. Because I'm like, that's the boy she's marrying. And looking at the tears in his eyes, I was like, it's a good thing."

Alia's speech at Akanksha's wedding was so touching! 😭 "She always shows up" - that's the kind of friend everyone needs. Also, Athiya's reaction "whatteeeee times" is so relatable. Bollywood friendships are so adorable!

It's great to see these wholesome moments. But I wonder if we're pushing the celebrity culture a bit too much. I mean, everyone celebrates friendship day, why make headlines out of it? Just my honest thought though, no hate. 🤷‍♂️
