Actor Ranbir Kapoor is an avid football fan and he co-owns the ISL team Mumbai City FC. Recently, the actor launched his team’s new jersey at an event.
During an interaction, he was asked to name the one person he would never want to play football with. He replied, ‘I’ll choose my wife, Alia. Because she’s very competitive. And if I beat her at the game, I know I’ll be hearing about it for a long time and she will really sulk with me. So, I would avoid playing with her.’
He agreed that even if Alia wins, it would be his loss, as she would gloat.
Ranbir also revealed that the only thing that gave him an identity during his youth was football.
‘In the 4th or 5th grade, I was pretty below average in everything I did: dramatics, studies. When I joined the school football team, that’s where I really found an identity, a personality for myself. Sports really teach us a lot in life. I remember the first time my name came in the newspaper was because I scored a goal in the inter-school football team from Bombay Scottish,’ Ranbir shared.
Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt tied the knot at their Mumbai home in April 2022, in the presence of family members and close friends.
They welcomed their daughter, Raha, in November 2022.
