Bollywood stars Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh have often been the subject of dating rumors due to their sizzling on-screen chemistry. However, Anushka once candidly revealed why she would never date her co-star, despite finding him attractive.
Anushka Sharma’s Honest Admission on India’s Most Desirable
In a throwback interview on Simi Garewal’s show ‘India’s Most Desirable’ in 2011, Anushka Sharma addressed the rumors surrounding her relationship with Ranveer. When asked directly why they weren’t a couple, the actress provided a detailed explanation.
“If you know Ranveer and me really well, if people get to know us really well, they realize that we’re very different people,” Anushka said. She went on to describe their dynamic as “very volatile”, adding, “Yeah, we can kill each other. I’m serious, I can take his head off, he can take mine off.”
Contrasting Personalities and Expectations
According to Anushka, she and Ranveer had different expectations from a relationship and saw life through contrasting lenses “If we ever had to be in a relationship, we would want two different things from a relationship. We see life in a very different way. He’s a very practical person, I’m completely impractical,” she explained.
Despite the attraction, Anushka made it clear that a casual relationship was not her style. “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,” the actress stated.
Anushka’s Priorities: Marriage and Family
In the same interview, Anushka also shared her thoughts on marriage and family, revealing that they were important priorities for her “I want to be married. I want to have kids. And when I am married, I probably would not want to be working,” she said.
True to her words, Anushka Sharma went on to marry cricketer Virat Kohli in 2017. The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Vamika, in 2021. There are now speculations that Anushka is pregnant with her second child, though the actress has maintained a low profile about it.
Ranveer Singh’s Relationship Timeline
On the other hand, Ranveer Singh’s love life has also been a topic of much interest. In the recent episode of ‘Koffee With Karan Season 8’, the actor revealed that he met Deepika Padukone after his breakup from a long-term relationship. This statement has reignited speculation about his past relationship with Anushka Sharma.
Ranveer and Deepika, who co-starred in films like ‘Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela’, ‘Bajirao Mastani’, and ’83’, fell in love and tied the knot in 2018. The couple has since collaborated on several projects and continues to be one of Bollywood’s most adored pairs.
Anushka and Ranveer’s Successful Collaborations
Despite their contrasting personalities, Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh have delivered several successful films together. Their on-screen chemistry in movies like ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’, ‘Ladies vs Ricky Bahl’, and ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ has been widely appreciated by fans.
In ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’, Anushka and Ranveer played a pair of wedding planners who eventually fall in love. Their natural chemistry and impeccable acting skills made the film a hit and launched both their careers to new heights.
Fans’ Speculation and Reactions
The resurfacing of Anushka’s old interview has sparked a renewed interest in her relationship with Ranveer. Fans have been quick to share their thoughts on social media, with many expressing surprise at the revelation.
One user on Reddit commented, “Wow, I never knew this! It’s interesting to see how they both have found their perfect partners in Virat and Deepika, respectively.” Another fan tweeted, “Anushka and Ranveer’s chemistry is undeniable, but it’s good they realized they weren’t meant to be a couple. Their friendship and professional relationship is goals enough!”
Conclusion
Anushka Sharma’s candid admission about her attraction to Ranveer Singh but unwillingness to date him due to their contrasting personalities sheds light on the complexities of relationships in the entertainment industry. While the two have enjoyed a successful professional partnership, they have both found happiness in their respective marriages with Virat Kohli and Deepika Padukone.
As fans continue to speculate about their past and present relationships, Anushka and Ranveer’s story serves as a reminder that sometimes, the most successful partnerships are those built on mutual understanding, respect, and a shared vision for the future.
