What did PM Modi ask Ranbir Kapoor during their meeting? The actor shares

In a recent episode of Nikhil Kamath’s podcast 'People by WTF,' Bollywood superstar Ranbir Kapoor opened up about his memorable meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Reflecting on their 2019 meeting in New Delhi, Ranbir shared intriguing details about what PM Modi asked him during their conversation.

What Ranbir Kapoor said about PM Modi

Ranbir Kapoor recounted the aura of the Prime Minister, describing how Modi’s presence was both magnetic and personable. “When I met the Prime Minister, a group of young actors and directors went to meet him four or five years back. You see him on television and how he speaks—he’s an exceptional orator. But the moment he walked in, he brought this magnetic charm with him. He spoke to each person about something personal,” Kapoor recalled.

Ranbir shared how PM Modi’s genuine interest in the personal lives of those he meets was evident during their interaction. “When my father was undergoing treatment, he asked how it was going. He talked to Alia Bhatt about something personal, Vicky Kaushal about something else, and Karan Johar about something different. That kind of personal effort is something you see in truly great individuals,” Kapoor explained.

A Star-Studded Affair

The 2019 meeting in New Delhi was a significant event, featuring a constellation of Bollywood celebrities and filmmakers. Among those present were Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, Ranveer Singh, Bhumi Pednekar, Ayushmann Khurrana, and Sidharth Malhotra, alongside prominent filmmakers like Karan Johar, Ekta Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Varun Dhawan, Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, and Rohit Shetty.

Nikhil Kamath’s Encounter with PM Modi

Nikhil Kamath also shared his own experiences with PM Modi. Known for his humility, Kamath described how he has had the privilege of being around the Prime Minister at various events. Despite the close interactions, Kamath made it clear that he doesn’t have direct access to Modi. “Can I pick up the phone and call him? No. I have had the privilege of being around him at a couple of events, and people read into it. I really respect and admire him,” Kamath said.

Kamath highlighted Modi’s relentless energy and work ethic, recounting an impressive story from a trip to the US. “He would do a speaking session with us at 8 am, give a speech at 11 am, and do something else at 4 pm. By the time I was tired, he would head to Egypt to do it all over again. His energy is crazy,” Kamath revealed.
