Alia and Ranveer are seen in bright red traditional outfits, showing their synced dance moves as they perform during Durga Puja celebrations. The song also shows their families – the Randhawas and the Chatterjees. While Shabana Azmi and others who play Alia’s family finally smile after being upset in the beginning, the song ends with an angry Jaya Bachchan, who plays Ranveer’s grandmother in the film, walking out in rage.

Internet reacts to synched video

As the video of Ranveer and Alia dancing to the tune of Dola Re Dola was shared on Reddit, internet users had mixed reactions to it. One said, “If this was Dola Re’s original choreography and cast, we wouldn’t even know there was an iconic song like Dola Re in today’s date.” Another wrote, “Looks as if someone changed the speed to 2x.” A Reddit user also said, “KJo has been trying hard to be SLB and failing. He tried doing that with Kalank too. This Magnus Opus genre is not for KJo.”

Comparing Ranveer and Alia to Aishwarya Rai and Madhuri Dixit who had danced in sync to Dola Re Dola, a Reddit user commented, “All good but that charm is completely missing, Aish & Madhuri had something.” A comment also read: “Also Ranveer represents both Madhuri and Ash alone”.
