Ranbir Kapoor is one of the most celebrated actors of his generation. Besides this, he is also known for maintaining good friendships with many people in the industry. Amongst all, time and again, Ranbir's friendship with ace filmmaker, Karan Johar has often made it to the headlines.

Now, while scrolling through our social media feed, we stumbled upon a video from an upcoming event, the Filmfare Awards, featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Karan Johar. The video began with Karan constantly ranting about Ranbir's name by saying, "Ranbir hi kar sakta hai, Ranbir hi karega, Ranbir ko hi karna chahiye, Ranbir must help us.."

Back in 2017, when Ranbir attended the AIB Podcast, he was asked whether he was tired of the show Koffee With Karan. To this, Ranbir affirmingly mentioned that he was forced to join season 5 (2017) and revealed how he clearly said to Karan that he had no further interest in going there after that. Ranbir also mentioned that even his ADHM co-star, Anushka Sharma, was on the verge of protesting and bringing the whole industry together with him to protest against the show. He mentioned that, from their perspective, the show is only unfair. Talking about the backlash the actors have received for the revelations they make on the show, Ranbir said:
"I am. I was forced this season. I told him ‘I don’t wanna come’ and me and Anushka (Sharma) were actually going to protest and bring the entire film industry together because it’s not fair. He is making money out of us. We come and we get screwed through the year. And it’s not right."

On the other hand, Karan Johar, who is known for launching star kids in Bollywood, once shared his admiration for Ranbir. KJo revealed that, unlike other actors, Ranbir does not have different managing teams or a public relations person to manage or handle his professional life. During an interview with Mid-Day in September 2023, Karan was asked by the host to share the difference between Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh, during which he spoke in detail about the Animal actor's professionalism and lauded the actor. He said:
“He does one film at a time; he handles his own dates. There is no PR, there is no manager, there is nobody around him. He is on his own. You ask him for dates, he opens his phone, he has all his own dates, he knows exactly which plans he's doing, he knows his schedule, he knows his days off, he knows his holidays.”
