Bollywood heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor is undoubtedly one of the most versatile artists that the industry has ever seen. But apart from his superhit films and incredible performances, Ranbir is one actor whose personal life was always the talk of the town. That’s all in the past, now that he is happily married to actor Alia Bhatt and is a doting daddy to their darling daughter Raha. Well, today on RK’s 43rd birthday, let’s take a trip down memory lane to the time he wanted to be his ex-girlfriend Deepika Padukone and her then-boyfriend Ranveer Singh’s baby’s favourite actor. Is Dua Padukone Singh listening?

Back in 2016, Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh joined filmmaker Karan Johar for a fun chat on an episode of his talk show, Koffee With Karan Season 5. This was a few years after Deepika Padukone and Ranveer got into a relationship and before RK and Alia Bhatt started dating. When asked about the elephant in the room, Ranbir had replied, “We’ve positively moved on in our lives and it’s high time that Koffee with Karan also moves on. Because there’s no elephant, it has disappeared, it is invisible.”

We wish Ranbir a very happy birthday and hope he finds a fan not only in Ranveer and Deepika’s daughter Dua but also his own daughter Raha when the star kids are all grown up.
