Dua Lipa was greeted by the paparazzi outside the airport where she was seen along with her team. As she a made her way to her car from the airport, the paparazzi called out her name, trying to get her attention so that she poses for them. However, when she didn't stop and instead got into the vehicle, they playfully teased her, saying "Dua, Dua, Dua... Dua mein yaad rakhna". For the unversed, it is a line from a famous song 'Channa Mereya' by Arijit Singh from the film 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' and also a common saying in India among Hindi speaking people.
