'I have had enough'

Poor Image

“That isn’t me that’s being written about. I’ve had enough. I just want to withdraw from the limelight completely for sometime,” said Ranbir, 28. The actor is currently busy shooting for Imtiaz Ali's ‘Rockstar’ with half Czech-half Pakistani model Nargis Fakhri. “More than himself, Ranbir is embarrassed because of his parents. He can take any kind of flak or rumour. But if his parents get affected, he reacts. And now Ranbir has had enough. He won’t take the Casanova image lying down,” said Ranbir's friend.

“Ranbir is specially cheesed off by the rumours about Nargis. He has never treated her as anything more than a co-star. Ranbir goes out with her, yes, but only in a group with his other friends.” The friend says there’s a valid reason for why Ranbir was seen with Nargis at a movie recently. “Nargis is under an exclusive contract with Asthvinayak, the producers of 'Rockstar'. She can’t be seen at public events or at social gatherings with people outside her 'Rockstar' team,” said the friend.

“Ranbir was keen to see ‘The King’s Speech’and not ‘Black Swan’ as reported with his buddy Ayan Mukerjee. Nargis wanted to come along. Which she did, with a female friend of hers.

During interval when Ranbir came out, there were more than 50 press photographers waiting to click him and Nargis together… at 11 pm! Who informed the press? Certainly not Ranbir or Nargis or their friends who accompanied them for the movie.”

Ranbir's friend feels the image of the womanser is being carried to the extreme and being planted by ‘vested interests’ only to show that the actor is not as serious about his work as his colleagues.
