At the 55th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa, Ranbir Kapoor shared an anecdote that sparked a lively online debate. The actor revealed that when he first met his now-wife Alia Bhatt, she asked him, “Who is Kishore Kumar?” Ranbir’s comment seemed to let know people about a generational gap in Bollywood knowledge, but his comment quickly became a talking point on social media.
Reflecting on the moment, Ranbir Kapoor said, “It’s like people are forgotten and new artists come. It’s important to remember our roots.” The audience at the event reacted with shock with one attendee exclaiming, “Are you serious?”
The revelation didn’t sit well with many online users. Taking to Reddit, some questioned Ranbir’s remark as an attempt to embarrass Alia, recalling her earlier viral moments. One Reddit user commented, “Why does Ranbir Kapoor do this? First lipstick, now this?” Another joked, “Lipstick revenge taken. Who doesn’t know Kishore Kumar?” The other user amusingly questioned, “Lmao!! Does he do this on purpose?

Others defended Alia, pointing out her age at the time of their meeting. A fan noted, “Maybe Alia was too young then. When Ranbir met her at 9, how could she know Kishore Kumar?” Also, many users called for the couple to avoid discussing personal anecdotes in public. A user summarized, “Both need to stop scoring points against each other in interviews.”
