Speaking about Akanksha, Alia described her as the person who keeps their close circle of friends together. She said, “She’s the glue that holds us all together. She has the most perfect, special, individual relationship with every girl in the group and she always shows up.”
Alia also shared the moment that moved her the most during the wedding ceremony. She revealed that while everyone was looking at the bride, her eyes first went to groom Sharan Sharma. “Which is why today when she showed up, walking down this beautiful aisle, looking like a dream, of course I was looking at her but I first looked at Shari. Because I’m like, that’s the boy she’s marrying. And looking at the tears in his eyes, I was like, it’s a good thing,” she said.
