Ranveer Singh has shared several pictures and videos with his maternal grandfather on Instagram over the years. In August 2020, the actor posted a stylish picture of his grandfather sporting a Gucci cap, oversized sunglasses and a gold chain, captioning it “Nana-G.” However, one of their most memorable appearances together came in August 2023, when Ranveer shared a series of pictures and videos with his 93-year-old Nana during the promotions of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. The duo was seen dancing to Jhumka Gira Re, while his grandfather sported a 'Team Rocky' T-shirt. In another clip, he hilariously said, “Tikki choro tequila lao!” In May 2024, the actor also shared a picture of his grandfather after he stepped out to cast his vote despite the scorching Mumbai heat, writing, “93yrs old. 93°F outside. But he voted. He’s a voter! My Rockstar Nana #EveryVoteCounts.”
