Alia Bhatt says daughter Raha’s birth transformed Ranbir Kapoor, they’re like ‘two friends’: ‘I often record them sneakily’
Alia Bhatt says that husband Ranbir Kaboor has changed as a person after becoming a father to daughter Raha.

Through photos and short clips, fans of Ranbir Kapoor often see him being girl dad goals when he is out and about with daughter Raha Kapoor. Now, in a new interview, Alia Bhatt has shed some light on the transformation she has seen in Ranbir after Raha’s birth. She also revealed that Ranbir ‘really wanted to be a girl dad’ all along.
“When he looks at Raha, there are stars in his eyes. Of course, (that’s true) for any parents. But when I see it, because I’ve known Ranbir before and I know him now, I see the difference. I see the difference in the way he is with people, you know, as a father. He’s just so sort of full. It’s not like he was ever edgy. He always had a very calm demeanour, but there’s a fullness which I experienced first-hand and that I see on a daily basis, and it’s actually really sweet and special to watch their conversations,” Alia told Jay Shetty on his podcast.
She also spoke about how Ranbir keeps Raha engaged. “He’s amazing. He’s very creative when it comes to entertaining her. She entertains him as well, like they both have a very special friendship, I would say. Their bond is like they’re two friends — either two adults or two toddlers, you know, different at different moments in life,” she said.

Alia accepted that she ‘sneakily’ tapes Ranbir and Raha’s moments together. “I’m sneakily, you know, videotaping a lot of their random moments, and they don’t even know I’m doing it. Eventually, I guess one of them looks at the camera and then I put it off, but it’s just the beginning. But the beginning is just so unique and special, at least from where I’m sitting and from what I’ve seen. Just to watch your partner also manifest love in that way is very interesting.”

Ranbir and Alia welcomed Raha in 2022. The couple has been hands-on parents to her and are often spotted with her. Talking about her own journey of motherhood Alia said, “When you speak about surprises, there are many because she is a toddler now—she is always bubbling. The feeling of motherhood is ever-evolving, but one thing I can say for sure is that I have become incessantly protective ever since she was born. I remember the early months after she was born; it was bliss for me. I enjoyed the survival and nurturing feeling.”
