Nushrratt Bharuccha spills why she will always pick Ranbir Kapoor over Pyaar Ka Punchnama co-star Kartik Aaryan
Nushrratt Bharuccha's fascination, admiration, adulation — whatever you may want to call it — for Ranbir Kapoor is no big secret. In a recent chat with Shubhankar Mishra, the actor delved into detail over the fact that while the world now may be running after her long-time and recurring co-star Kartik Aaryan, but for her, it'll always be Ranbir over him.
She said, "Actually Kartik and I started together, we've done so much work together, ke aap uss nazar se phir, as an audience, dekh hi nahi paate usko, because then he's become a buddy...partner in crime, same-same co-actor, same-same acting kar rahe hain, wohi kar rahe hain. So I think that was the vibe I created with him, and we had. But Ranbir ko toh aise pardon pe dekha hai na, aise bade hote hue...arre".
For context, Kartik and Nushrratt have worked across as many as 4 films together — Pyaar ka Punchnama (2011), Akaash Vani (2013), Pyaar ka Punchnama 2 (2015) and Sonu ke Titu ki Sweety (2018). Not just this, they both held cameos in Ranbir and Shraddha Kapoor's Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar (2023), helmed by the director who got them together in the first place, Luv Ranjan.
We know Nushrratt is a true and blue fangirl owing to how beautifully she describes the moment in Ranbir's filmography when she fell in love with who he was an actor. She shared, "Rockstar was the one for me that really...I was like 'what has he done, what has he done'. There's a shot where he's standing under Khatara bhai's house, jab woh lost tha, mahino se usko koi dhundh nahi paa raha tha. Aur woh Sufi kapdon mein khada hota hai aur upar dekhta hai,...woh jo nazar hai, woh bohot mushkil hai. It's sublime acting, it's just another level of understanding the character that are bringing that out. Woh chote chote nuances aapko bata nahi sakta hai koi, aapko laane padte hain character mein".
So is Nushrratt appropriately "obsessed"? She thinks otherwise: "I don't think I'm obsessed. I think he's one person...and it's very difficult to believe me but I'm seriously saying this, mujhe uss insaan ki skill aur craft se pyaar hai. I just want to watch Ranbir Kapoor on screen. I just want to watch him act. I think I'm in love with his skill and craft more than who he is as a person, because honestly I don't know him as a person. Personally kaise...aap saalon tak logon ko nahi jaan paate. 6 din ki shooting kari hai (in Tu Jhooti Main Makkaar). How will I know anybody in 6 days?".
As a matter of fact, Nushrratt, without batting an eyelid, picked the Brahmastra actor yet again when asked to choose between him and none other than Shah Rukh Khan! Explaining her pick she then articulated, "Kaam mein Ranbir Kapoor, but if I have to be romancing and falling in love with someone, Shah Rukh sir".
On the work front, Nushrratt last featured in supernatural thriller Chhorii 2, currently available for streaming on OTT.

Not Shah Rukh Khan or Amitabh Bachchan. This star couple's new house is the most expensive home in Bollywood
For several years, the construction of Bollywood stars Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt 's lavish residence in Mumbai's Bandra has captured public attention. What began as an ambitious housing project has now evolved into a nearly finished structure. Located on the upscale Pali Hill stretch, the sprawling bungalow has stood as a work-in-progress while the Kapoor family frequently visited to monitor its development. These visits—featuring Ranbir, Alia, and veteran actress Neetu Kapoor—were regularly captured by paparazzi and circulated widely across social media platforms. Now, fresh footage suggests the residence is virtually ready, flaunting a sleek, sophisticated finish and enhanced with greenery and decorative fencing across its six levels. A recent comparison with visuals from October the previous year reveals how far the home has come in terms of completion. The exterior appears polished and elegant, with several balconies now decked with plants, contributing to the tranquil and opulent aesthetic. However, observant fans pointed out one glaring omission: the absence of a permanent front gate. This detail quickly became the subject of online banter and jokes, with users mocking the missing structure and humorously speculating on whether the cost of construction had exceeded the budget. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Mini House for 60 sqm for Seniors with Toilet and Bath (Click Here) Pre Fabricated Homes | Search Ads Search Now A paparazzi account shared the most recent video of the mansion on social media, captioning it as a milestone for the celebrity couple. Ranbir and Alia, who are currently living in their Vastu residence nearby—the same apartment where they exchanged vows in 2022—have often brought their daughter, Raha Kapoor, and Ranbir's mother, Neetu, along for site visits. The under-construction house, now almost ready, bears a soothing grey and sky-blue color palette, reflecting both grandeur and calm. The architecture highlights their taste for nature-inspired design, with lush green touches on the balconies and rooftop. The property is named Krishna Raj Bungalow in memory of Ranbir's late grandmother, Krishna Raj Kapoor. According to various sources, this mansion is intended to be a legacy gift for the couple's daughter, Raha. Reports indicate that the house will eventually be registered in her name. With a reported valuation of ₹250 crore, the home has emerged as Mumbai's most expensive celebrity-owned residence, surpassing even Shah Rukh Khan 's Mannat and Amitabh Bachchan's Jalsa in estimated worth. To put the scale of this investment into perspective, Amitabh Bachchan's Jalsa is estimated at ₹100 crore, while Mannat is believed to be worth around ₹200 crore. The land where the new home stands originally belonged to legendary actor Raj Kapoor and Krishna Raj Kapoor before being passed down to Rishi and Neetu Kapoor in 1980. Professionally, Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Animal (2023), directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, while Alia's most recent appearance was in Jigra (2024), directed by Vasan Bala. Although the film did not fare well at the box office, Alia has more projects lined up, including Alpha. The couple is also co-starring in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's upcoming film Love & War, alongside Vicky Kaushal. Additionally, Ranbir is preparing to portray Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana.

Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor's 6-storey Bandra bungalow, worth Rs 250 crore, is ready after 3 years; fans ask: ‘Gate nahi hai'. Watch
Actor couple Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's dream home in Mumbai's Bandra has been under construction since many years now. The family's visits to supervise construction — Alia, Ranbir and Neetu Kapoor — were documented by paparazzi and consumed by people on the internet. Now, it seems the family's home is ready. Compared to a video captured in October last year, their six-storey bungalow seems more complete and polished with many final touches – fencing and plants on every floor. Although, netizens were quick to notice that the front gate is yet to be put in. A paparazzo shared a video of Ranbir and Alia's new home on social media, with the caption, 'New beginnings in a dream home! Alia & Ranbir's love nest is finally ready.' The couple has often been snapped visiting the construction site of their house with daughter Raha Kapoor and Ranbir's mother, actor Neetu Kapoor. They are currently living in their Vastu apartment in Pali Hill, where they also tied the knot in 2022. The Kapoor home has a beautiful grey and light blue exterior with a lot of greenery in the balconies and terrace. After the clip was posted on Instagram, several fans shared their views about the house, with many questioning the temporary gate. 'Itna kharcha ho gaya ki naya gate banane k paise hi nai bache (It cost them so much they decided it doesn't need a new gate),' a fan joked. Another person wrote, 'Ranbir be like main gate nahi banwaunga.' 'Gate itna sasta kyu banaya Patre ka?' a comment read.

The reports also indicated that the house costs Rs 250 crore, making it the most expensive celebrity bungalow in Mumbai, even more than Shah Rukh Khan's Mannat and Amitabh Bachchan's Jalsa. The Krishna Raj Bungalow, where Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are building their house, was originally owned by Ranbir's grandparents, Raj Kapoor and Krishna Raj Kapoor. It was then inherited by the actor's parents Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor in 1980. Now, Ranbir and Alia are now carrying on the family's legacy as they plan to move there soon. They even celebrated Diwali and performed the puja in the new house, last year. On the work front, Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal in 2023. Alia, on the other hand, last starred in Vasan Bala's Jigra in 2024, which did not perform well at the box office. The couple is currently shooting together for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Love & War with Vicky Kaushal. Ranbir will also feature in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana as Lord Ram, while Alia has Alpha in her kitty.
