‘Barfee’ Director Anurag Basu Is Upset With Ranbir Kapoor’s Old Age Look
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
