When Ranbir Kapoor lost his cool after Anushka Sharma slapped him on set: ‘There is a limit to it'
and
Anushka Sharma
have worked together in several films and often speak fondly about their friendly bond. But not many fans know that their off-screen friendship was once tested during the filming of '
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil
', when Ranbir's patience finally snapped after a slap gone wrong.
A slap too many on set
The moment was captured in a behind-the-scenes video from the sets of 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil'. In the clip, Ranbir and Anushka were seen talking about their work when an unexpected moment happened. Anushka had to slap Ranbir in a scene, but she ended up slapping him more than once.
Seeing Ranbir visibly upset, Anushka walked up to him to apologise. But Ranbir was not having it. 'There is a limit to it,' he said. 'I told you not to do it, it's not a joke.'
Anushka quickly responded, 'Did I do it on purpose? Are you really upset?' Ranbir, seen holding a tissue to his face, said, 'Yeah, of course, you're hitting hard.'
Ranbir called Anushka a natural performer
In the same video, the 'Barfi!' actor spoke about what led to the situation. He explained that Anushka takes her performance seriously and often gets fully into the moment. The 'Rockstar' actor said, 'She whacked me once, she whacked me twice. Because she is a very organic actor, you know.

She is someone who is really in the moment and she wants to give a very true performance. So she whacked me again.'
Anushka later explained what really happened
In a 2016 interview with DNA, the 'PK' actress explained the whole situation and what caused the confusion during the shoot. She said that during the filming of that scene, she was first told to slap Ranbir for real, and later asked not to, but forgot in the heat of the moment.
The 'Band Baaja Baaraat' actress said, 'So you know how scenes are shot, right? You shoot one actor first and then the other.
So, they shot Ranbir first and told me to slap him for real. I slapped him. This scene is very long. So it starts and we are sitting in one place talking and then one slap happens. When they were shooting my part after his, they told me, 'Don't slap him for real.' But I got so lost in the scene that I forgot about it – it happens a lot when I'm shooting my scenes.
'
Anushka added that while it was good to be immersed in a role, this time it didn't work in her favour,'That's a good thing but in this case, it didn't turn out to be such a favourable thing. I forgot he asked me not to slap him and I ended up giving one on his face. As soon as I slapped him, I was like, 'Oh shit!' And he was like, 'Why are you slapping me for real?''
She then assured Ranbir that it wasn't intentional at all. She explained 'I told him, 'I already slapped you so many times during the takes, why would I deliberately want to slap you again?' But I think he was doing some nakhra, pretending to be angry!'
Their on-screen bond still shines
Despite the slap incident, Ranbir and Anushka have always shared a good working relationship. Besides 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', the two actors also starred together in 'Bombay Velvet' and 'Sanju'. While 'Bombay Velvet' didn't perform well, 'Sanju' turned out to be a big box office hit. Their chemistry in 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' was loved by fans, and the film went on to become one of the most talked-about romantic dramas of that year.
