Ranbir Kapoor has been on cloud nine ever since he entered the new phase of his life as a father. Back in 2023, the actor had opened up about his emotional journey of parenthood in a chat during promotions for Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar. Talking about his daughter Raha, he admitted to missing her when away from home for shooting or other work commitments.
In an interview with Bollywood Now, Ranbir Kapoor said, “I miss her a lot. A lot. At least 20 baar toh ho jata hai aaram se (video call) (I miss her a lot. A lot. I end up video calling her at least 20 times).”
The actor further added, “Iske pehle bhi main promotions ke pehle delhi mein shoot kar raha tha, jab bhi chhutti milti thi, main ek din ke liye aa jaata. Milti hai, aap rejuvenate ho ke wapas jaa sakte ho kaam par. I would come home just for a day. I think even that one day gives so much relieve, you feel rejuvenated enough to return to work.
Even Alia Bhatt is totally in awe of the kind of father Ranbir is. In a chat with author Jay Shetty, the actress reflected on Ranbir’s role as a father and his unique bond with their daughter Raha. She revealed that the father-daughter duo share a bond like they are two friends and at other moments, they are two toddlers. Expressing how the actor has evolved over time, she mentioned, “I’ve known Ranbir pre and I know him now, I see the difference. I see the difference in the way he is with people, you know, as a father.”
Ranbir’s sister, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, during her appearance on The Great Indian Kapil Show, had also stated that her brother’s eyes light up when he talks about Raha. She added that the actor is a different person from her.
On the work front, Ranbir Kapoor is currently busy working on Ramayana, co-starring Sai Pallavi. It is directed by Nitesh Tiwari.
