Mumbai: As the festive season of Diwali approaches, Bollywood has already started celebrating with grand parties. Renowned Bollywood designer Manish Malhotra hosted a lavish Diwali party, attended by a star-studded guest list, including Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Gauri and Suhana Khan, Kajol, and couples like Siddharth-Kiara and Riteish-Genelia.

Riteish and Genelia Deshmukh are often seen as Bollywood's ideal couple, with a huge fan base that also refers to them as "Dada-Vahini" in Maharashtra. The couple arrived at the Diwali party in a traditional and elegant style. Genelia donned a stunning yellow lehenga paired with an aboli-colored draped designer blouse, accessorized with a single necklace and a clutch. Riteish looked dapper in a black blazer. The duo posed together for the paparazzi, and videos of their arrival have since gone viral on social media, earning praise for Riteish's chivalrous behavior.

Riteish initially stepped out of the car alone but then went back to open the door for Genelia. Noticing her outfit was large and delicate, he offered his hand to help her out of the car.

Social media has been buzzing with comments like "Riteish is a true green flag," referencing his respectful and caring behavior. In the past, similar moments of admiration have surfaced, such as when Riteish greeted Madhuri Dixit with folded hands at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's engagement.
