Bollywood’s heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor and National Crush Rashmika Mandanna made for an unexpected but captivating pair in Animal (2023). Their on-screen chemistry, full of love, passion, and raw emotion, left audiences enamored. While the movie primarily revolved around a devoted son’s relationship with his father, the love story between Ranvijay and Geetanjali, played by Ranbir and Rashmika, struck a special chord with viewers. The emotional rollercoaster, however, took a heartbreaking turn when Ranbir’s character broke Rashmika’s heart, making her cry. What fans may not know, though, is that Rashmika shed tears off-screen as well.
Ranbir’s Thoughtful Gesture
In an interview from a few years ago, Rashmika shared a heartwarming anecdote about Ranbir Kapoor’s kindness during the filming of Animal. She recalled feeling frustrated with her boring breakfast, and the next day, Ranbir surprised her by arranging for a special breakfast to be made by his cook. “I started crying. I’m like ‘how can the same food be so good?’,” she said, overwhelmed by the gesture. She laughed about the difference in their food experiences, mentioning that she and her team couldn’t afford a cook like Ranbir could. His thoughtfulness made the moment all the more emotional for her.
Ranbir’s Love for Food and His Co-Stars
Ranbir Kapoor, known for his love for food (a trait he inherited from his late father, Rishi Kapoor), not only enjoys indulging in good food but also likes to treat his co-stars to delicious meals. Rashmika’s story highlights how his culinary gestures were just one more example of his caring and generous nature on set.
Upcoming Projects
On the professional front, Rashmika Mandanna is currently riding high on the success of her latest Bollywood venture Chhaava, where she stars alongside Vicky Kaushal. Meanwhile, Ranbir Kapoor is gearing up for his next big project, Love & War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, where he will share the screen with Vicky Kaushal and Alia Bhatt.
