Ranbir Kapoor Admits To Cheating On Deepika Padukone in Recent Interview: A Deep Dive into His Personal Journey
News Mania Desk/Agnibeena Ghosh/29th July 2024
Ranbir Kapoor has once again captured public attention following his latest interview, where he openly discussed his personal life, including his relationship with his father, his past romantic relationships, and his current life with wife Alia Bhatt and their daughter, Raha Kapoor. However, a particularly notable part of the interview was Kapoor’s response to being labeled a cheater, a tag that has followed him for a significant part of his life.
In his conversation with Nikhil Kamath, Kapoor reflected on the accusation of infidelity that has persisted in the public eye. He acknowledged that he had been branded a cheater for many years but expressed that this label was not entirely accurate and that he has moved beyond it. Kapoor dismissed the label, emphasizing that it does not define him and that it is not a fair representation of his character or his personal growth.
This revelation led to a wave of social media activity, where users unearthed a 2011 interview with Stardust magazine in which Kapoor had previously admitted to cheating on actress Deepika Padukone. In that interview, Kapoor had responded to Padukone’s allegations of infidelity made during her appearance on Koffee With Karan. Kapoor confessed to his past mistakes, attributing his actions to immaturity, inexperience, and the allure of temptations.
Kapoor’s candid admission from over a decade ago revealed his regret and growth since that period. He explained that his actions were driven by a lack of maturity and an inability to handle relationships responsibly. Reflecting on his past behavior, Kapoor expressed a deep understanding of the consequences of infidelity and acknowledged that it erodes trust and respect, which are fundamental to any relationship.
He further elaborated on his views about relationships, stating, “Infidelity is the deal breaker… Once it comes in, respect goes away, trust goes away, and these are the pillars of a relationship you can’t f*** around with it.” This statement underscores his evolved perspective on commitment and trust, showing a clear departure from his earlier mindset.
Kapoor’s relationship history includes a notable romance with Deepika Padukone, which lasted from 2007 to 2009. Following their breakup, Kapoor was romantically involved with Katrina Kaif before eventually finding stability with Alia Bhatt. The couple now shares a daughter, Raha Kapoor, marking a new chapter in Kapoor’s personal life. Meanwhile, Padukone is married to Ranveer Singh and is expecting her first child.
Despite their past, Kapoor and Padukone have managed to work together professionally, reuniting on-screen for the successful films Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) and Tamasha (2015). Their collaboration demonstrated a mutual respect and professionalism, transcending their personal history.
