Ranbir Kapoor is a huge football fan. He is frequently seen wearing football club jerseys and attending football matches. He also owns Mumbai FC, a football club. He recently revealed who he will never play a football match with.
When asked who he would never play a football match against while launching the Mumbai FC jersey, Ranbir said in a conversation, “I think I’ll choose my wife Alia. Because she’s very competitive. And if I beat her, I know I’ll be hearing about it for a long time and she will really sulk with me. So I think I would avoid playing with her.”
When asked if Alia would have a longer, better celebration if she defeated Ranbir, he replied,“Exactly. I’m screwed both ways.”
Ranbir and Alia met while filming Brahmastra, directed by Ayan Mukerji and released last year to strong box office numbers. They married in April of last year and had a baby girl, Raha, later that year. They revealed her name using a miniature football jersey with the number ‘8’ on it. The couple considers 8 to be their lucky number.
