<p>Actor Ranbir Kapoor says Katrina Kaif holds a special place in his life but he does not want to end the mystery by talking about it in media.<br /><br />After the photographs showing Ranbir holidaying with Katrina went viral, the actor is no more in denial mode.<br /><br />"There is so much being said about my personal life. I don't want my life to become a reality show. Yes, Katrina is a very special part of my life," Ranbir told PTI.<br />The actor, who previously dated Deepika Padukone, said he has learnt from his experience to not talk about his personal life.<br /><br />"... when you are going to marry someone, of course I would love the world to know about the person I love," he said.<br /><br />The actor feels that there is a lot of judgement in the country about women and their relationships.<br /><br />"I think you have to protect that. I will try and protect the mystery of what I have in my personal life," he said.<br /><br />Ranbir has no problems with what is being said and written about him as he feels that's the part and parcel of the industry.<br /><br />"You can write anything about me... I may feel bad or good about it as you (media) have created me. I am a media created star. I can't have an opinion now. If I say something there will be 20 different articles and point of views which will again bring negativity in my life. As of now I am happy in my life professionally and personally," he said.<br /><br />Reacting to the recent photos of him and Katrina, Ranbir said has no issues with those being published.<br />"I am actor and when I was growing up I had a favourite actor. I also liked reading about their lives. As an actor you have to be prepared (for it)," he pointed out. </p>.<p>Earlier, Ranbir felt a lot was being said about him and Deepika and now he has learnt to guard his personal life as that takes away from the work he does.<br /><br />"When I was in a relationship earlier I spoke about it freely, so the spotlight went away from my work. All I want to say is I don't want my life to be a reality show. I have decided to take it this way," he said.<br /><br />Ranbir said he can't stop people from talking about his personal life, but he wants to maintain a sanctity of it.<br /><br />The actor has also refuted reports of getting engaged to Katrina on his birthday - September 28.<br /><br />"There was a report that I am getting engaged on my birthday but there is no truth in that. This is another rumour," he said.<br /><br />When asked how he is planning to celebrate his birthday, he said, "I hate celebrating my birthday. I feel there is so much of pressure that if it is your birthday so it has to be special. I go for dinner with my parents and friends come home, next day I am on film set. <br /><br />This year I am on a film set so probably I will cut the cake with media people. Last year I was promoting a film."<br /><br />On work front, Ranbir has interesting projects like Abhinav Kashyap's 'Besharam', Anurag Kashyap's 'Bombay Velvet', 'Jagga Jasoos' with Anurag Basu and a film with Imtiaz Ali and Ayan Mukherjee. </p>
