Speaking at the Dubai event, Ranbir Kapoor said, “I am not officially on Instagram. I do have a what's that word-finsta, which is a fake Insta account. There are such amazing people in the world doing amazing, inspirational things, and I want to follow them.”

The actor further explained why he doesn't have an official handle, saying that since he is an actor, he didn't want to be officially present on Instagram. If he did, he would feel responsible for showing himself off to the world. He added that he already has a medium to do that, cinema, which he feels is enough for him to express himself to the world.

When asked whether he has posted anything on Instagram, Ranbir said, "Actually, on my finsta account, I did make a reel with my daughter Raha and posted it. But I have no followers, so it's just for the air.”

At that moment, Alia Bhatt revealed, "He wouldn't even let me follow him. He's like, 'No, because if you follow me, everyone will follow me. So when I was peeking into his phone, I saw he's got like all of two reels on his finsta account, which only he and maybe two other people can see.”

In response, Ranbir added, “If she follows me, the world will get to know.” Moreover, both actors also took the time to dance on stage to the song Badtameez Dil from Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.
