This is how Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra’s wedding version of the song ‘Ranjha’ came to be

Everyone swooned when actors Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani tied the knot in Suryagarh Palace in Rajasthan last year. But it was truly their wedding song that captured the hearts of many.

In a recent podcast, their wedding videographer Vishal Punjabi aka ‘The Wedding Filmer’ recalled how the Shershaah co-actors decided to use their wildly popular song ‘Ranjhaa‘ for their wedding.

Vishal explained how the original lyrics of ‘Ranjhaa‘ from the movie were about Sidharth’s character dying and Kiara’s character, who was his love interest, yearning for him to come back to her.

“It’s a song about death and destruction but she (Kiara) wanted to walk to that song. Validly so, because it’s the song that people loved the two of them for. Being Bollywood actors, they’re known for that song,” Vishal said in the Culture Podcast with DJ Simz.

Though it made sense for Kiara to walk into that song, the videographer and his team confessed to feeling off about the lyrics of the song as they “didn’t make sense” and would not sit well with the celebratory vibe of the event.

“What I did with my team was that we changed the lyrics of the song. We made them positive and happy, and about, ‘I’m coming to you’,” Vishal revealed in the interview.

Then, he says, Bollywood fans did their magic and fell in love with the song as they decided it would be the happy ending the couple’s characters didn’t get in the movie. “They took the wedding film as the real ending to the movie. They didn’t get a happy ending in the movie but in real life, they got it.”

This is not the first time a custom song has been made for Bollywood celebrities’ wedding. The first ones to do it were Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma,  for whom singer Harshdeep Kaur sang the song ‘Peer Vi Tu’.

Recently, Parineeti Chopra also sang a song, ‘O Piya,’ for her husband Raghav Chadha during their wedding.
