Ranbir Kapoor, post the event, talked about how he would have preferred bringing his daughter Raha to Ayodhya. Raha is only one year old and clearly her parents did not bring her along. 

In Ayodhya, talking to Times Now, Ranbir stated, "It's a big pride. I feel extremely lucky and blessed to be here. I just wish I could have brought my daughter Raha (Kapoor) here to experience this historic moment. It just feels great. Jai Shri Ram."

Alia Bhatt and Ranbir impressed everyone with their traditional outfits at the event. While Ranbir wore an off-white dhoti-kurta along a shawl, Alia opted for a teal-coloured saree, which had a Ramayan-inspired border with embroidered images of Lord Ram, Lord Hanuman, and the Ram Setu. The couple were joined by other celebrities, including Rohit Shetty, Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif.
