Ranbir Kapoor is often likened to the Brad Pitt of Bollywood due to his reputation as a charming actor and his history of dating some of the most prominent actresses in the industry, including Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor, and Mahira Khan. However, it was Alia Bhatt who ultimately won his heart and became his wife.
One of the most notorious controversies in Ranbir Kapoor’s romantic life was his infidelity during his relationship with Deepika Padukone. Their love story began on the sets of “Bachna Ae Haseeno,” but the dynamics changed when Ranbir grew closer to his co-star Katrina Kaif during the filming of “Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani.”‘
In a 2011 interview with Stardust magazine, Ranbir Kapoor openly confessed to his infidelity, admitting, “Yes, I have cheated, out of immaturity, out of inexperience, out of taking advantage of certain temptations, out of callousness. You realise it now, when you grow up and you value it more why be in a relationship, why be committed to someone when you cannot be committed?”
Deepika Padukone had also previously accused Ranbir of cheating in 2010, stating, “For me, s*x is not just about physicality; there are emotions involved. I have never cheated or strayed when I’m in a relationship. If I’m going to be fooling around, why would I be in a relationship? It’s better to be single and have fun. But not everyone thinks like that. Maybe that’s why I’ve been hurt in the past. The first time he cheated on me, I thought there was something wrong with the relationship, or me. But when someone makes a habit of it, you know the problem lies with him,” she had told Verve magazine.
Fortunately, both Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone have moved on to find happiness with their respective partners. Deepika is happily married to Ranveer Singh since 2018, while Ranbir Kapoor tied the knot with Alia Bhatt last year, and they now have a lovely daughter named Raha. Moreover, Deepika, Ranbir Kapoor, and their current partners maintain friendly relations and often collaborate on various projects.
