Ranbir Kapoor’s old man act for a TV commercial has apparently disappointed the Barfee director Anurag Basu. Reports say that Ranbir’s old look was actually a surprise element in his upcoming movie Barfee, that remains no more a secret to the world after the actor’s TV ad.

Basu confirmed a leading daily that he was shocked after he first caught Ranbir’s old getup in the TV ad which is almost identical to that of his old-age look in Barfi. A source informed the leading daily that the makers of the film had taken great pain to keep the actor’s surprise look under wraps, but all went to vain finally.

It is believed that the cellular company copied Ranbir’s look from his Blackberry phone as he had kept it as his display picture for some time. Though the filmmaker was initially angry with the entire goof–up, he later melted down. Source

Veteran actor Paresh Rawal has proved time and again that he is one of the finest actors in the industry and any kind of praise from such a stalwart is enough to make any actor’s day.

Rawal reportedly praised Ranbir for staying away from signing up for immature roles and claimed that even in a multi-starrer film like Raajneeti, the Kapoor prince was superlative and that ‘all the other guys looked pale compared to him’. “Ranbir Kapoor is terrific. He is the future,” Rawal was quoted to have said. More

The prequel also had Chunkey Pandey sharing the screen space with Chi Chi. Reports also mentioned that Chunkey Pandey and Govinda will not be part of AANKHEN 2.

The filmmaker is reportedly finalising the script and if everything falls in place, the film may hit the floors by the end of this year. Source

Looks like Ranbir Kapoor is snatching much more than just best actor awards from SRK this year! ROCKSTAR Ranbir has won most of the best actor awards this season, over King Khan who was also nominated in the same category for DON 2.

They aren’t the best of friends, as reported by a section of the press. But that isn’t stopping Ranbir Kapoor from making a special request to Shahid to join his world tour in August. This comes in the wake of the news of both of them bonding big time in Macau at an awards event recently.

He says, “Shahid and my son have become good friends. He is likely to join us. The rest of the details are still being finalised.”

We had earlier reported about how Shahid had helped Ranbir overcome his nervousness before his first stage performance at the event (Hitlist, January 25, 2012).
