Who is Ranbir Kapoor?
Ranbir Kapoor is an Indian film actor. Through his successful career in Bollywood films, he has become one of the highest-paid actors and one of the most popular celebrities in India. He is the recipient of several awards and nominations, including five Filmfare Awards.
Kapoor is the son of actors Rishi and Neetu, and the grandson of actor-director Raj.
