^ Given that Ranbir has basically played multiple versions of Ayan before, there isn't much for him to "research" really, KJo movie or not 😆

Anushka seems to be the type of person who needs to understand everything before she can act it.

That was actually a very interesting IV..Great to see all of them respecting each other's views and pausing and listening to what the other person is saying instead of rambling and talking over each other..Some things really stood out though-

1. Diljit is super endearing..So unassuming and humble and the least pretentious of the lot..He doesn't care if he comes across as naive/ignorant and Ranbir was bang on when he said there is a certain goodness that reflects on his face..Sach me dil jeet liya with his endearing personality 😆 YT is full of comments gushing over his adorable one liners in the interview 😆

2. LAMAO @ Amitabh talking about how he feels very strongly about woman empowerment, their dignity and place in the society 😆 That said, i loved his insight on stardom..About how fickle the industry is and you can go from a superstar to a nobody in no time..

3. Shahid has accepted the fact that he might never be a big commercial star and that seems to have brought so much calmness and security in the way he talks and responds to questions..He actually gave a lot of really sensible and to the point answers..And he seems to genuinely admire Ranbir..Even Ranbir was surprised when Shahid went on and on about ADHM and his performance in it 😆

4. Ranbir doesn't seem to like Sushant at all 😆 Poor Sushant kept looking at him for some sort of approval or response through out the IV and Ranbir seemed detached at most points 😆 As detached as he can be, you can really tell at times if he is faking it/being genuine and he seems to really like Diljit while Sushant seems to annoy him for some reason 😆 I liked how he was point blank about how there is only so much to a KJo film and there is not much work or preparation you need to do to get into the character/understand its depth..Almost the anti-thesis of what Anu said and am afraid RK makes more sense here cos there really is only so much depth to what Karan creates and that doesn't require extensive research most of the time 😆

5. Sushant rambles, goes off the tangent and most of his answers were very abstract and made no sense..I almost felt sorry for him cos he looked awestruck throughout and was having a tough time keeping his calm..That also makes his journey really interesting in a way..From a background dancer to a star sharing space with the top actors of the industry..

I thought I was imagining it! SSR kept looking at Ranbir and answering, and then putting his hand on RK's shoulder. I felt like RK went totally stiff whenever he did that. I was trying to figure out if he was just uncomfortable with the touching or if he really doesn't like SSR all that much 😆

Meghna di, I just realized that MrsKhan won't give me honest answer.
Mrs Khan - Can I show this to FK? It may never happen . So please say yes .

But I liked the fact that he was honest about it 😆 You can tell he doesn't think much of it..He was genuinely surprised when Shahid mentioned ADHM 😆 And how cute is Diljit? That Tom Hanks comment and then when he randomly mentioned Rockstar 😆

Diljit is so nice and humble. I haven't seen UP . I am sure he must have done a good job. Everyone likes him .
Poor SSR, why couldn't RK be nice to him atleast one time? He must have done something to piss RK off

Haha yes he didn't pretend like it was some super hard role for him but then generally Ranbir is not the type to do that.

Diljit is adorable! ❤️ I hope he gets more movies in BW...can't wait for his interviews during Phillauri...hopefully solo, because otherwise Anu won't let him get even one word in. 😆

And about Ranbir not liking Sushant..I totally felt that! I thought SSR was trying to praise Ranbir and was looking for a response but Ranbir didn't want anything to do with him...until at the end, he politely praised him. That's why I thought BigB was more sincere in his praise of Sushant in MSD, even though he has yet to see the movie too.
