Ranbir Kapoor Lost To BARFI!

The incident occurred Thursday morning. On his way back from Dubai where he was promoting his upcoming film, Ranbir Kapoor had an experience he will not forget anytime soon.


He met a lady on the flight, who despite being an ardent fan of the character he played in "Barfi!", failed to recognise the actor. And this, after having a chat with him for half-anhour. An amused Ranbir played along.


The lady, who had this curious rendezvous with Ranbir, was Sophia Jammal Samtani --a Lebanese married to an Indian, who was travelling from Lagos to Mumbai to meet her husband.


An eyewitness told Mirror, "Dubai was a stopover. Sophia was sleeping blissfully when Ranbir came and sat next to her. She woke up about half-an-hour before the flight landed in Mumbai."


Ranbir struck up a conversation with her and the topic soon veered towards films. Sophia told Ranbir that although she has not seen many Hindi films, some have made a deep impact on her.


She also mentioned "Fanaa" and "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham". It was when Ranbir asked if she had seen any recent film, Sophia said excitedly: "Sorry but I forgot "Barfi!". That was one film in recent times, that will always remain entrenched in my memory.


All three actors (she did not name them as Ileana D'Cruz, Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor though) gave noteworthy performances, especially that guy "Barfi!"."


They kept chatting and it was only when the flight touched the runaway, Ranbir introduced himself saying: "Ma'am, I am Barfi."


Mirror contacted Sophia, and she confirmed the story and confessed: "When he told me he was the Barfi guy, I thought he was joking. Although he had the same spiky hair…but I couldn't place him.


It was when he insisted that I realised my faux pas. It was embarrassing. I am sure Barfi (note: she is still not calling him Ranbir) must have thought I am dumb." As the flight came to a halt, a very sheepish Sophia requested Ranbir for a picture. "Thankfully, he agreed. I am so happy to have met "Barfi!" (Ranbir who?)."

I am certain he gives interviews when he is stoned. His poor grand mother Krishna ji.

I can't afford to fly Business Class so my chances are nil sitting next to a celebrity, unless they are broke like me 🤣
