If you’ve been keeping up with Bollywood gossip over the years, you would know that Sonam Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor were once a rumoured couple. Though both parties never made anything official. But here’s the real twist: Sonam Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor are cousins. Both these star kids made their debut together in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya, and since then, rumours of them dating have circulated all over the internet.
Nirmala Kapoor, who passed away recently, was married to Surinder Kapoor, a cousin of the legendary actor Prithviraj Kapoor, making both these stars part of the same extended family. This revelation was made by Sonal Kalra on her show, The Right Angle, produced by Gautam Thakker Films.
It’s interesting to think they once played romantic leads— but in Bollywood, where reel and real often intertwine, news like this is just part of being a celebrity.
