Friendly chemistry

Contrary to reports, actors Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra shared a warm camaraderie on the sets of their upcoming film

There have been a lot of stories doing the rounds about actors Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor not getting along too well on the sets of their upcoming film, Barfi! While sources from the industry had in the past said that the duo maintained a safe distance from each other, close friends from both sides say all is well between the two. A source sets the record straight. “Ranbir and Priyanka have known each other so the comfort level was obviously high. Barfi! is a heartwarming film with a simple story but the characters are very different. Ranbir and Priyanka both had to work on their parts as Ranbir plays a deaf and mute character while Priyanka is autistic in the movie. During difficult scenes, the two were seen helping each other. They were so caught up with their roles that they were spotted discussing how to work on their characters even during the breaks between the shoots.” If sources close to the actors are to believed, their friendship helped them bring out the best performance. A source from Ranbir’s camp adds, “They both really bonded well while shooting for Anjaana Anjaani. It was shot entirely in Vegas and the duo was away from friends and family for a considerable amount of time. Also PC and RK are both huge gadget freaks. They would spend a lot of time chatting about the gadgets in town. That is how the two bonded and that friendship has reflected in Barfi! as well. Plus, Ranbir really respects Priyanka as an actor. Barfi! has certainly not been an easy film but both of them have been each other’s support system.” Talking about his equation with Priyanka, Ranbir had earlier said, “There is no cold vibe with Priyanka. She is a fantastic actor and I really admire that about her. Also, the film required us to be in a particular frame of mind due to the characters that we play so we couldn’t be on back-slapping terms. But obviously, that doesn’t mean, we have issues. She is a great girl and good fun to be around.”
