Anushka Sharma once said she would be a great mother because she has been around Ranbir Kapoor: 'He's a child'

Long before Anushka Sharma became a mother to baby Vamika, she credited her co-star Ranbir Kapoor with giving her a glimpse of the patience and care that motherhood would demand. In a candid 2015 interview, Anushka shared how Ranbir’s curious, childlike nature on film sets helped her realise she could handle the challenges of being a mom—and even prepared her for the joys of raising a child.

Learning patience from Ranbir Kapoor

In an interview with NDTV, the actress revealed that being around Ranbir made her confident she would be a good mother in the future. She explained that Kapoor’s curious, childlike nature—constantly wanting to know everything, opening drawers or her handbag, and checking her phone—taught her patience and care. She concluded that being around him had prepared her for motherhood.

Ranbir’s curiosity and talent

Sharma also commented on Kapoor’s personality, saying his curiosity would make him a great actor and possibly a talented filmmaker in the future. She noted, however, that his curiosity could sometimes be so intense that it became annoying.

While Anushka is now a mother to two kids Vamika and Akaay Kohli, Ranbir is doting father to his darling daughter Raha Kapoor. He is married to Alia Bhatt.



Anushka Sharma and Ranbir Kapoor have co-starred in several films, including Bombay Velvet (2015), Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (2016), and Rajkumar Hirani’s hit Sanju (2018).

Meanwhile, on the work front, Ranbir will next be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Love & War' with Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal. He also has Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana and Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal Park in his pipeline. Anushka, on the other hand, will next be seen in Chakda Xpress.
