Ranbir Kapoor isn’t on social media…well, at least not officially. But he has been trending almost every day on Twitter. No, it is not entirely because of his upcoming film ‘Brahmastra’. Instead, visuals of him “disrespecting” his female co-stars have gone viral.
A few years ago, he was called out for mansplaining Katrina Kaif’s character in Jagga Jasoos while she was sitting right next to him. Recently, a video of him outing Anushka Sharma’s anxiety and making fun of her went viral. A few days ago, a clip of him making fun of Alia Bhatt’s baby bump during a live interaction was being widely circulated too.

And now, one user on Twitter, @rexiespo, made an entire thread of the multiple times Ranbir Kapoor was allegedly disrespectful towards Katrina Kaif.

There was this one incident during a radio interview where Ranbir claimed he could any day do a better job than Katrina.

Another time, he said something inappropriate to Kat while she tried to fix her mic.
when her mic kept falling off and he said “do you need help fixing it” she looked clearly uncomfortable and asked him not to speak w her that way and he laughed it off and said that she’s always fighting him??? pic.twitter.com/xN3M6HMMBL

Here’s Ranbir claiming he tried to look at his English teacher’s legs, who would wear a skirt to school, when he was in the second standard.

It’s visuals like these that made many people on Twitter think that it’s time to cancel Ranbir Kapoor.
For those who do not know, this is part of the infamous cancel culture where people ostracize and socially oust a person from social media. Earlier, celebrities like Taylor Swift, Ellen DeGeneres, and J.K. Rowling were cancelled on Twitter.
Now that everyone is talking about it, I want to add that I’ve always disliked Ranbir Kapoor, his acting, his presence, and his personality. Very snobby. And how he has treated Katrina Kaif, I hope iske sath Ladies vs Ricky Bahl ho.

how does woman defend a person like ranbir Kapoor even after knowing all the things he did to a lot of people like pls bending down and watching a teacher’s legs is not a fun thing to do fat shaming his own wife and also making fun of people’s mental health is so fun na ?

Twitter calling out Ranbir Kapoor for years of misogyny against his female co-stars and partners is actually a whole lot of us calling out our own perpetrators, people at whose hands we suffered passive abuse and manipulation, people who blamed us for what they did to us.

Glad ranbir kapoor is finally being exposed for the talentless misogynist he is. Arrogant and disrespectful. https://t.co/LvhUgHq1yK

ranbir kapoor is the sort of guy where if you dared him to kiss the prettiest girl in the room he would not kiss his gf

Ranbir Kapoor being called out is v personal to me because my mom always said he gave a shady vibe and it just proves that her intuition about men is always right

Ranbir Kapoor joking about Alia's weight while she is pregnant is so low even for him, Ranbir better be grateful that Alia who's at the top of her career is having his child bhai teri ek film kaam nahi kar rahi hai plus you're like 40 stfu

What I can't believe is that Ranbir Kapoor has grown-ass women who are his fans and routinely defend such behavior. Sorry, but no person with any self-respect and conscience can defend this. https://t.co/3EoyBWVejP

Ranbir Kapoor is the kind of jackass no woman in her 30s would even go near. There’s a particular douchebag filter that develops only post-30 which explains how our man has dated all the women he has.

Ranbir Kapoor being called out now after years of being perceived as a sweetheart gives me flashbacks of all the guys who were toxic, passive aggressively misogynistic and got away with doing the bare minimum just because they were the "nice guy" :/

twitter cancelling ranbir kapoor the world is finally healing 🙏🏻
