The Animal star said, “When I started, I was always regarded as this playboy guy, who was just dating actresses. Let me tell you- I was in NYC for three years and nine months – from 2000 to 2003. I didn’t date one girl. I was always an aashiq… So, I made myself believe that my first girlfriend in school when I left for New York, even though I was not with her, I made myself believe that she was the love of my life. And now it’s over, let’s just focus on work.”
“Of course, I dated two very successful actresses and that just became my identity. That he is a Casanova, I was labelled a cheater for a very large part of my life and I still am. I don’t care about it because it’s not entirely true. People don’t know the entire story and I would never speak about somebody like this in public because it’s a very private thing. But, things were spoken about and if it makes that person happy, I don’t have any conflict with that person,” he went on to state.
Ranbir Kapoor dated Deepika Padukone from 2007 to 2009, but they broke up amid rumours of his infidelity with Katrina Kaif. He then dated Katrina from 2010 to 2016, with a highly publicised and passionate relationship that ultimately ended without marriage.
