Ranbir Kapoor has always been one of the most intriguing stars of Hindi cinema, deeply private yet constantly in the public eye, loved for his talent but often scrutinized for every move he makes. His easy charm, emotional depth on screen and solid film legacy have kept him at the centre of conversations for years. But with that fame comes an unending spotlight, one that recently grew brighter once again.
The latest discussion around him began when earlier reports suggested that he had adopted a strict sattvic lifestyle to prepare for his role as Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming Ramayana. These reports claimed that he had stepped away from alcohol, smoking and non-vegetarian food, choosing meditation, early mornings and a more disciplined routine to help him align with the calm and spiritual nature of his character.
However, a new video has brought these claims under question. The clip appears in Dining With The Kapoors, a recently released family feature celebrating Raj Kapoor’s 100th birth anniversary. In the casual footage, Armaan Jain serves dishes like fish curry rice and mutton to the Kapoor family seated around a large table. Ranbir is seen comfortably sharing the meal with Neetu Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan and others.

As soon as the video hit social media, it triggered widespread discussion. Many viewers felt that the earlier claims about his diet may have been exaggerated for publicity and expressed frustration over how such narratives are crafted. Some questioned why any such statements were made in the first place, pointing out that avoiding dramatic claims would have prevented unnecessary backlash.
Ranbir Kapoor PR lied that he avoided all kinds of meat while Filming Ramayana but in Dining with the Kapoors, we see all that claim being nothing but a lie.

While this debate continues online, excitement around Ramayana remains high. The film features Ranbir as Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita, with Yash portraying Ravana. Sunny Deol and Ravie Dubey appear as Hanuman and Laxman, and the cast also includes Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh, Arun Govil, Kunal Kapoor, Adinath Kothare, Sheeba Chaddha and Indira Krishnan. Reports indicate that the editing of the first installment is already complete, adding to the growing anticipation surrounding the film.
