On Koffee With Karan Season 8, Alia Bhatt and Kareena Kapoor discussed a topic that stirred some controversy. The duo talked about Ranbir Kapoor being called “toxic.” Alia took a moment to explain the situation, shedding light on a specific incident that led to misunderstandings.
Setting Things Straight
In their candid conversation, Alia talked about an incident where Ranbir asked her to wipe off her lipstick. This innocent moment took a wrong turn and led to people labelling Ranbir as toxic. Alia explained that her way of speaking, often using imitations and personal anecdotes, might have contributed to the misunderstanding. She shared that, at first, she thought to let it go, but when serious articles started portraying Ranbir negatively, she felt the need to address the issue.
Alia’s Take on the Matter
Alia expressed her frustration, saying, “I think I have a very candid way of speaking. Even when I’m talking about anything in my life, I like to imitate the person that I am talking about.” She emphasized that things were taken out of context and felt disappointed that people thought Ranbir was genuinely toxic when, according to her, he is the opposite.
Ranbir Kapoor’s Response
In response to the controversy, Ranbir Kapoor shared his viewpoint on dealing with opinions in the entertainment industry. He pointed out that a lot of things are written about actors, and many opinions are not necessarily true. Ranbir stressed that the image people have of him is not something he owns; it’s shaped by the characters he plays and public reception.
Ranbir encouraged people to form opinions based on his work rather than rumours. He acknowledged people’s right to express their views while highlighting his dedication to focusing on his craft.
