In today’s age, it’s rare to find someone without a social media account. With a smartphone in hand, it almost feels mandatory to have a social media handle.
For celebrities, it’s not just about connecting with fans or sharing film updates; it has also become a major source of income.
But in this unavoidable social media era, one actor stands apart - Ranbir Kapoor. Instead of relying on social media, he has built craze and a massive fan base purely through his talent.
Many actors today survive only on social media stardom. They spend lakhs to boost views and clicks, projecting that as proof of their popularity. Yet, in reality, many of them don’t enjoy the same following on the ground.
Ranbir Kapoor, however, is an exception. In his two-decade-long career, he has never depended on PR stunts or social media reach.
Whether his films were hits or flops, it was always the films that spoke for him, not his personal promotions.
If you see updates about Ranbir’s films on social media, it’s either from his fans or from the film’s team - not from Ranbir himself.
With Animal becoming the biggest hit of his career, Ranbir Kapoor has established himself as a rare star hero who continues to rise without ever owning a social media account.
