Ranbir Kapoor talks about his unofficial Instagram account
Ranbir was asked if he has an Instagram account. He said, “I’m not officially on Instagram. I have a finsta account. There are such amazing people in the world who do such amazing, inspirational stuff. So you do wanna follow them. But because I’m an actor, I didn’t want to officially be on Instagram.”
The actor also said, “Then I’ve a responsibility to really show myself off to the world, and I felt that I already have a medium, which is acting, in movies, that’s enough for me to show myself off to the world.”
Ranbir on why he prefers not to have an Instagram account
He added that he has been asked this question so many times and he always has a different answer, which “may not be the truth.” “But I have to come up with different answers because otherwise I’ll seem boring, as it’s been 10 years and I’m always asked this question,” added Ranbir.
