Ranbir Kapoor has largely remained private about his life and even chooses to not be on social media. However, there have been times when he’s opened up and displayed his vulnerable side. He had once spoken about times during his childhood when he heard his parents Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor fight, thus it was an emotional turmoil for him. He also spoke about how it was more embarrassing for him to go to school after that because his parents were celebrities and things were in public eye. However, he feels grateful that at the end of the day, his parents came out of that fighting phase and found companionship again. “At that time press didn’t matter because I was in the fire zone. I was living with my parents so seeing them going through that phase, I was very much part of it. I was right there,” Ranbir recalled during an interview with TBIP. Sharing how physically close he was to the chaos, he continued, “We live in a bungalow and my parents live downstairs and I live on the upper floor. I remember sitting on staircases for four hours from 1 at night to 5 in the morning and hearing them fight, break things.”

Ranbir also opened up about how the very public nature of his parents’ relationship struggles made school life uncomfortable. “Everyone goes through it but just that my parents were celebrities so it was in the press. It was a little embarrassing in school. Your friends don’t mention it because they are good friends, but somewhere you know that there is a sense of ‘I know what is happening in your life’. But you have to deal with it. What’s more important is your parents became okay. They came out of this phase and find companionship and friendship again.”

Recently, comedian, actor Vir Das shared a lighthearted incident involving Rishi and Neetu Kapoor that he witnessed during a flight. Speaking on the Moment of Silence podcast, Vir recounted a humorous exchange between the couple in business class. “I’m in the back of a flight, and like in the front of the flight, I hear some chikad-chikad happening between a couple in business class, ‘You can’t eat the cake.’ ‘I want to eat the cake.’ ‘You’re not allowed to eat the cake. The doctor said no cake.’ ‘I want the bloody cake. What the f**k?’.” Vir revealed that Rishi Kapoor even walked back to his seat and struck up a conversation with him. In a comical twist, Rishi ultimately helped himself to the dessert that had been served to Vir.
