Anything related to Bollywood looks all glam on the 'gram. Camera flashes here, flying kisses there. One day they're promoting a film, another day they're starting a vlog online. One day Kartik Aaryan is spotted in a car with Ananya Panday, the next day he's seen having dinner with Sara Ali Khan. Whatever a Bollywood celebrity does, it becomes a headline in no time.
