Ranbir Kapoor slammed for calling Alia Bhatt 'dal chawal'

Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor is being criticized for saying his celebrity wife Alia Bhatt is his dal chawal.

The Brahmastra actor made the statement while speaking about his marriage life at the launching of his upcoming film Shamshera. He recalled dialogue from his film Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and said the dish stands out from the rest.

“I always said that we need tangdi kebab, and not dal chawal in life. But with experience I can say that nothing better than dal chawal. #Alia is the tadka in dal chawal, the achar with it, she is everything…,” said #RanbirKapoor reflecting on his marriage with #AliaBhatt #Ralia pic.twitter.com/7NSJbaFoIv

“I said dialogue in my film that ‘shaadi is dal chawal for pachaas saal till you die,” he said. “Life mein thoda bahut keema pav, tangdi kabab, hakka noodle bhi hona chahiye.’. But boss, after life’s experience, I feel dal chawal is best. Alia is like added tadka in my life.”

Netizens were taken aback by his remarks and trolled him for it.
