‘I’m very possessive about my mother so I never watched her films.’

Actor Ranbir Kapoor talks about his life in the spotlight

Panasonic’s new brand ambassador Ranbir Kapoor made a fleeting visit to Delhi. At Hotel Ashoka,dressed in an elegant black suit,Kapoor appeared relaxed and spoke candidly about his forthcoming releases and the media glare around him. While Raj Kumar Santoshi’s Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahaani with Katrina Kaif is due for a July 10 release,Karan Johar’s Wake Up Sid with Konkana Sen Sharma and Prakash Jha’s Rajniti also with Kaif are to follow by year-end. “I’m enjoying my career graph. And I’m excited about all my films as they’re all wonderful scripts with lovely co-stars,” smiles the diplomatic Kapoor. But having mentioned co-stars,how lovely really is the controversy doing the rounds about his problematic relationship with girlfriend Padukone because of co-star Katrina Kaif? “I’m an actor and frankly I can’t demand privacy even in my personal life. But I guess there’s a line I will have to draw somewhere,” says Kapoor.

Kapoor says he’s ecstatic about his mother Neetu Singh’s comeback to the big screen after three long decades. “It’s lovely that she is doing a film after such a long time. But to be honest I have never watched her films as I was extremely possessive about her. And I’m glad she is making her comeback to films with my father,” admits Kapoor. A family trait,perhaps?
