Ranbir Kapoor is one of the finest actors in the Indian film industry. His film Yeh Jawaani hai Deewani inspired the youth to reach their dreams and goals. His character Bunny helped people to dream big. However, there was a time when he himself did not resonate with the ideologies of Bunny. Did you know there was a time when Ranbir Kapoor planned on getting married and having kids in his mid-20s? This is in absolute contrast to Bunny who wanted to live his life his own way, without the shackles of a simple job, marriage or children.
When Ranbir Kapoor Revealed He Wanted to Settle Down in his Mid-20s
At the trailer launch of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, the actor was 30 years old at that time. He revealed his thoughts on getting married and having kids. He also added that his plan was changed and widely influenced by Ayan Mukerji.
“We are at times now where we should not give deadlines to marriage, age. When one falls in love, a wedding will happen, then children will happen. I think everything is natural progress,” he said before crediting the filmmaker. “This is Ayan’s teaching to me. When I got to know him four years back, I was in a hurry to get married. I said, ‘I want to get married, I want to get married, I want to have children.’ He would tell me, ‘Relax, you’re just starting out your career, meet people, live your life a bit then get married,'” he said.
Eight years later, Ranbir is dating Alia Bhatt. The actor, in an interview with former journalist Rajeev Masand, has said that he had hoped to marry Alia in 2020, had the ‘pandemic not hit our lives. “I don’t want to jinx it by saying anything.
