Twitterati never hides its true feelings. Be it about songs, music, actors and, now, even about the cast of a movie. 

Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali announced that he would be working with actors Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt for an epic love story. 

Earlier, social media was excited about Salman re-uniting with Sanjay after a gap of 20 years. But, on Wednesday when they announced that Salman would be paired opposite Alia, Twitter had different views about it. 

While the fans are still speculating about the story of the film and the 30-year age gap between the two, Twitter called it an unusual pairing for a love story. 

Not only this, social media dug out an old picture of the 53-year-old actor with baby Alia. The pairing for Salman and Alia literally broke the internet. 

Twitter reactions:

One said: “Who would've thought they will work together as a lead pair. #Inshallah”.
