Actor-comedian Kapil Sharma has returned with his new comedy show, The Great Indian Kapil Show, the first episode of which was released earlier tonight. Joining the host were the three important people of the Kapoor family- Neetu, Ranbir, and his sister Riddhima. As they spoke about Ranbir-Alia's wedding, the Animal actor shared a fun anecdote of the 'joota chupai' ceremony from their intimate wedding.

Kapil Sharma invited Neetu Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor, and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni to inaugurate the first episode of his new show, The Great Indian Kapil Show. While the Kapoor family spoke about Ranbir and Alia Bhatt's wedding, Sharma asked whether the rumors of him paying in lakhs to Alia's sister during the joota chupai ceremony at their wedding were true.

Responding to it, the Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar actor said, "No. That's not true." His mother, Neetu, added, "We did give them some cash." Ranbir then recalled that, as customary, Alia's sister demanded a couple of lakhs from him as part of the fun joota chupai ceremony. However, he ended up bringing them down to a couple of thousand.

On hearing this, Archana Puran Singh, who is also a key part of the show, was taken aback. She said, "In thousand. So less." To this, the Animal star added, "Yes. The wedding happened at home. The shoes would still be at home. Take them if you want." They laughed collectively.

While talking about multiple unknown anecdotes from his life, Ranbir also spoke about the first and the last time he got a tapli from his father, the late actor Rishi Kapoor. He recalled, "It was Diwali puja at RK studios, and papa was very religious. I think I was 8 or 9 years old, and I had stepped inside the temple wearing shoes. I got a smack on my head."

It was in 2018 that Kapoor revealed that he was dating Bhatt. A couple of years later, in April 2022, they got married in a traditional ceremony on the balcony of their apartment in Mumbai. In November of the same year, the celebs welcomed their first child, a daughter they named Raha Kapoor.
