Alia Bhatt on Saturday reacted to the release of Katrina Kaif's new film "Sooryavanshi".
Taking to Instagram, the actress shared a clip from outside a cinema where fans were queued up to watch the Rohit Shetty directorial film which casts Akshay Kumar in the lead role.
"What a way to begin. The magic of the movies is back," wrote Alia who is dating Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor, the ex-boyfriend of Katrina Kaif.
Katrina Kaif took to her Instagram stories to share Alia Bhatt's post praising her movie.
Bollywood stars are returning to India's big screens after more than a year, with the film industry hoping that declining COVID-19 cases and the festival season will bring audiences back to the cinemas.
"Sooryavanshi" (Descendants of the Sun), a police drama with four of India's top actors, is the first A-list Bollywood film to premier in theatres since March 2020, when a strict lockdown forced all venues to close.
