Ranbir Kapoor is one of the most prominent names in the Indian film industry. Over the course of his career spanning over two decades, the 41-year-old has starred in some of the major blockbusters of Hindi cinema. Despite being such a popular star, Ranbir prefers his privacy. However, recently, the actor opened up about a lot regarding his professional and personal life on Nikhil Kamath's podcast, People by WTF.
While conversing, Ranbir noticed that the Zerodha co-founder, Nikhil, was wearing slippers with his initials engraved on them, and inquired if there was anything special behind this. The latter first talked about his fondness for Indian craftsmanship and the quality of goods found in the country and shared that a local brand had sold those to him. Nikhil further added that he felt the quality of the slippers was better than that of any foreign brands like Gucci or Louis Vuitton.
