A Father's Qualities Matter Most
Rahul Bhatt praised Ranbir Kapoor for being a great father, emphasizing that it's the most important quality a man can have. When asked about Ranbir’s acting career, Rahul admitted he didn’t really understand or care about it, stating that labels like actor or Kapoor didn't matter to him. He expressed that what truly mattered was Ranbir’s love for his daughter and respect for his step-sister, with everything else being secondary.

A Childhood Bond
