Ranbir Kapoor Launches New Business Venture on 42nd Birthday, Fans Speculate Meaning Behind ‘Arks’
Celebrating his 42nd birthday, actor Ranbir Kapoor has ventured into entrepreneurship by launching his new brand, Arks. The official Instagram account of the brand introduced the venture with a video featuring Ranbir. In the video, the actor is seen lying on the grass at night, gazing up at the stars before drawing a symbol in the air. The caption of the post read, “Meet the founder. He’s not on social media,” referring to Ranbir’s well-known absence from social platforms.
Reacting to the launch, Ranbir’s wife, actress Alia Bhatt, shared her excitement by posting fire emojis, while his mother, actress Neetu Kapoor, wished him “Good luck.” Alia also reposted the video on her Instagram Stories with the caption, “To new beginnings.”
Fans Speculate About ‘Arks’
Fans quickly took to social media to congratulate Ranbir, but many were left puzzled by the name Arks and what the brand represents. One fan speculated that the name might stand for Alia, Raha, Ranbir Kapoor & Sons, while another guessed it could be a sneaker brand. Some even joked about the scene in the ad looking similar to something from Ranbir’s recent film Brahmāstra.

Neetu Kapoor shared a heartfelt post on Instagram, referring to her son as not only an actor but also now a founder. She expressed her blessings, saying, “Happy birthday Ranbir, hope the birth of @ARKS makes this one even more special. Can’t wait to see your journey unfold.”
