Ranvir Shorey, a talented actor in the Bollywood industry, is currently a contestant on a popular television show. His humorous takes on various issues leave contestants in splits, and he is also forming strong bonds with his fellow participants.

In a recent conversation with a fellow contestant, Ranvir shared details about his past relationship with actor-director Pooja Bhatt, describing it as the biggest scandal of his life. He reminisced about the time during the 2002 shoot of 'Lakshya' when he received a call informing him of his mother’s ill health. Despite the urgent news, the shoot in 'Ladakh' prevented him from leaving the set until its conclusion.

He added, “During the same time, I also encountered the biggest scandal of my life with another actress. As I was unable to cope, my brother asked me to come to the US with him for a while. I pursued a six-month acting course in the US and borrowed money from my brother. After returning from the US, I started shooting for The Great Indian Comedy Show in 2005. At that time, two of my long-shelved films were greenlit for release and hit theaters back-to-back within a week, and my work was loved by audiences. After those films, I finally felt my life was steady as an actor and that I had arrived.”

For those unaware, Ranvir and Pooja Bhatt experienced a particularly rough separation. Both eventually moved on to new relationships. In 2010, Ranvir married actress Konkona Sen Sharma, and the couple welcomed their son, Haroon, in 2011. Although they separated in 2015, Ranvir and Konkona now share custody of their son.
