Kriti Kharbanda penned a special note for her brother. She wrote, "My parents always told me, this day isn’t about a brother promising to protect his sister, it’s a promise siblings make to one another, irrespective of gender, to love, to respect and always stand by one another. Come what may. We fight, we laugh and cry, all that while knowing we will always remain each others constants. I lucked out in that department and how! He’s today my strength, my confidant and the boy who never shy’s away from calling me out when I’ve done something stupid or something even more stupid than the first stupid thing. Haha. Happy #rakshabandhan to all the siblings out there."
