Ranbir Kapoor reacts to viral memes on ‘Kesariya’

New Delhi, July 19

Ranbir Kapoor addressed the viral memes on ‘Kesariya’, the song from ‘Brahmastra’ which was released Sunday at a press conference. Directed by Ayan Mukerji and also starring Alia Bhatt, the film will arrive in cinema halls on September 9.

Soon after the song’s release, a section of social media users started commenting about how they found the usage of the phrase ‘Love storiyan’ in the track, sung by Arijit Singh, a bit jarring. The song is penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya and composed by Pritam.

Memes and trolling are a part of life, said Ranbir Kapoor, adding that he “loved” the phrase in question.

“We, as filmmakers and artistes, create something and it is up to the audience to receive it how they do. We are very excited about the song, it has received a lot of love… As long as people enjoy the song, Pritam’s music, Arijit singing, Alia and my chemistry… that’s what the endeavour is. By the way, I loved the ‘love storiyan’ bit,” he added.
