Ranbir Kapoor-Alia Bhatt wedding anniversary: When the doting hubby said criticism towards his wife was 'just jealousy and mischief’

Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, celebrated their third wedding anniversary, marking a journey of love and professional success that began on the sets of 'Brahmastra'. Ranbir has consistently praised Alia's talent and strength, defending her against criticism during her pregnancy. The couple is set to reunite on screen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s 'Love & War', scheduled for release in 2026.
Raha Captures Alia's Sweet Moment
Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s romance began in 2018 while filming on the sets of 'Brahmastra'. Their relationship soon heated up, and on 14 April 2022, the couple got married in an intimate ceremony at their Mumbai home. Surrounded by close friends and family, the wedding was simple, elegant and full of love. Over the years, both Ranbir and Alia have earned their place, not just as powerhouse performers in Bollywood, but also as one of the industry’s most adored couples.
As 'Ralia' celebrate their third wedding anniversary, let’s look back at the time when the 'Rockstar' actor gushed over his wife and proved to be her biggest cheerleader.
Ranbir’s heartfelt praise
Back in 2022, during an interview with NDTV, RK spoke about Alia with deep admiration. He made it clear that his words were not just out of love, but from a place of respect for her talent and personality.

How do you feel about the couple's approach to handling public criticism?

“One thing is clear and I'm not saying this because she's my wife. Alia in the history of Indian cinema is probably one of the most important actors there's ever been. The work she's done on screen or the kind of way she carries herself, the value system that she has and what she stands by, I haven't seen that strength in men or women and I think we should just respect that,” he said.
Ranbir also defended his wife against negative comments she was receiving at the time, especially since at that time she was pregnant with Raha and still promoting 'Brahmastra'. “I think the way she has carried herself through the entire marketing of this film being pregnant, being in the condition that she is - I think you should only be inspired by that. Any kind of criticism is just jealousy and mischief makers and stupidity and we should not take that seriously.”
As they mark their third anniversary, fans continue to admire their journey—one filled with hard work, love, and a genuine partnership.

On the work front, Ranbir and Alia will reunite on screen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s 'Love & War', which also stars Vicky Kaushal. The film is set to hit theatres on March 20, 2026. Meanwhile, Ranbir will star in Nitesh Tiwari’s 'Ramayana', alongside Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshman, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, and Yash as Ravana. The first part of the film will release on Diwali 2026, with the second part following on Diwali 2027. Alia Bhatt will also be seen in 'Alpha' with Sharvari Wagh.
