Ranbir Kapoor requests paps to stop flashing lights amid conjunctivitis, says 'kuch dikhai nahi de raha'
Mumbai, July 22
Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor was spotted at Mumbai airport on Tuesday night, where he was seen requesting the paparazzi stationed at the location, to avoid flashing bright lights directly at his face.
In a video captured by IANS, Ranbir was seen making his way towards the airport entrance dressed in an all-black ensemble.
Sporting a black jacket over a black T-shirt, matching trousers, black sunglasses and a thick beard, the actor briefly stopped to strike a small fun chat with the paparazzi despite visibly appearing uncomfortable.
As photographers continued clicking pictures with bright flashlights, Ranbir politely told them, "Kuch dikh nahi raha hai" ( I can't see anything)
A paparazzo then requested the actor to wait for a few more pictures. Responding with his trademark wit, Ranbir quipped, "Rukke kya karu bhai?" (What do I do just after waiting, brother?)
The actor was then seen shielding his eyes from the flashes before making his way into the airport.
Reports suggest that Ranbir Kapoor contracted conjunctivitis from his daughter Raha, who had reportedly been diagnosed with the eye infection a few days earlier.
The same night, Kannada superstar Yash was also spotted at the Mumbai airport. Dressed in a rugged casual look featuring a dark jacket, T-shirt, trousers, tinted sunglasses, Yash walked into the terminal while greeting the paparazzi from a distance.
For the uninitiated, Ranbir Kapoor and Yash will next be seen sharing screen space in Nitesh Tiwari's much-anticipated mythological epic 'Ramayana'., where Ranbir essays the role of Lord Ram while Yash plays Ravana.
The film's trailer was unveiled recently at a grand launch event in Delhi.
The ambitious two-part adaptation also stars Sai Pallavi as Goddess Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshman, Sunny Deol as Lord Hanuman, Kunal Kapoor as Lord Indra, Rakul Preet Singh as Surpanakha, Kajal Agarwal as Mandodari.

Honestly, these paparazzi need to learn some basic etiquette. The man has an eye infection and they're still flashing lights in his face. It's not just about Ranbir - it's basic human decency. Fame shouldn't mean losing your right to privacy and health! 😤
Not a big Bollywood fan, but gotta respect how Ranbir handled this situation. In Hollywood, stars would just call security. He kept it light and polite. "Rukke kya karu?" - classic Indian humor right there 😂
Ramayan cast looking amazing! Ranbir as Ram, Yash as Ravan - that's some serious casting. Hope his eye gets better soon. Conjunctivitis is no joke, especially with those bright lights. And Raha gave it to him? That's so cute and painful at the same time 😂💪
I love how Ranbir balances being a star and being a normal person. He could've just ignored them or walked away, but he took a moment to explain. That "kuch dikh nahi raha" with his face was priceless. Hope he recovers before the Ramayana shoot! ✨
I agree with the comments about paparazzi but let's also appreciate the actor's humility. Ranbir clearly has a good heart - even when uncomfortable, he made sure to be respectful. Compare that to some other stars who literally throw tantrums! Raha giving papa conjunctivitis - what a daughter 😄
