Ranveer Singh's filmi connection

Ranveer Singh, who is currently gearing up for '83, does have a familial connection to Tinsel town. The actor is reportedly the second cousin of Sonam Kapoor. Sonam Kapoor’s maternal grandmother and Ranveer Singh’s paternal grandfather are siblings. Hence, Sonam’s mother Sunita Kapoor and Ranveer’s father Jagjit Singh Bhavnani are first cousins making the two Bollywood actors second cousins.

However, this piece of information was not known to many until Kangana Ranaut’s sister, Rangoli Chandel, made a controversial tweet announcing Ranveer Singh and Sonam Kapoor’s familial connection to the world. Rangoli had even made controversial remarks about Ranveer Singh reportedly calling himself an outsider. She had retweeted a netizen’s post which showed a picture of Sonam Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor attending Sonam’s birthday party.

Jagjit Singh Bhavnani, Ranveer’s father, is reportedly a businessman. But did he turn a producer for his son? This controversy has never been discussed much and no official statement has ever been given by anyone. But if this is true, then Ranveer Singh might also have a producer father, further cementing his filmi connection to Bollywood.
