In Bollywood, love stories are often as intriguing as the movies themselves. But there’s one story from the past that continues to captivate our attention, even though the leading characters, Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh, have moved on to new chapters in their lives.
Many might not know that there was a time when Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh were rumored to be more than just co-stars. Yet, today, they are happily married to different partners, Anushka with Virat Kohli and Ranveer with Deepika Padukone. What happened between these two talented actors that prevented them from becoming a real-life couple?
It all goes back to an old throwback interview, just after the release of their movie “Band Baaja Baaraat.” Anushka Sharma made it clear why she would never consider dating Ranveer Singh. She described him as too self-involved, a man who would prioritize himself over the relationship. For Anushka, a successful relationship required someone more involved and interested in her day-to-day life, which Ranveer didn’t seem to offer.
Anushka’s candid revelation shed light on their differing personalities, perhaps hinting at why they couldn’t find common ground for a romantic relationship. Their split was undoubtedly for the best, as they have both moved on to find love and happiness in their own unique ways.
Adding to the intrigue, Ranveer Singh’s appearance on the pilot episode of “Koffee With Karan” during season 8 provided more fuel to the ongoing speculation about his past relationship with Anushka Sharma. He mentioned meeting Deepika Padukone after a previous long-term relationship, which immediately triggered interest in who that previous partner might have been.
An old video of Anushka Sharma discussing her reluctance to date Ranveer Singh from Simi Garewal’s show “India’s Most Desirable” in 2011 resurfaced online. The video featured prominent Bollywood names, including Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, John Abraham, and, of course, Anushka Sharma.
In the video, Anushka explained to Simi Garewal why she and Ranveer weren’t a couple. She stated, “If you know Ranveer and me really well, if people get to know us really well, they realize that we’re very different people.” She went on to describe their relationship as volatile, even to the point where they could “kill each other.”
Anushka continued, “I like him, he’s attractive and everything. But, for me, a relationship can’t be frivolous. So, for me, if I happen to be with another man, he needs to calm me down. Otherwise, it would not be a good relationship.”
While this chapter of Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh’s lives is now history, it continues to intrigue fans and Bollywood enthusiasts. Love stories may not always have fairy-tale endings, but they do make for interesting tales of their own.
