I don't want to dance to colleagues' songs: Ranbir

By Subhash K. Jha

Mumbai, March 30 (IANS) Kapoor scion Ranbir, who walked the ramp for the first time at the ongoing the Lakme Fashion Week, says he has no plans to perform live on stage for a long time.

He said 'no' to lucrative offers to dance at all awards functions at the beginning of the year.

"I'm just not ready to perform on stage. I don't have a body of songs. After my second release 'Bachna Ae Haseenon' in August maybe I will. Until then I don't want to go on stage to dance to my colleagues' songs," Ranbir, who debuted with "Saawariya" last year, told IANS.

Commenting on his first ramp walk Saturday, Ranbir said: "Walking the ramp is something I would've never done so early in my career if it wasn't for Arjun Khanna. I was as nervous as I was for my first shot of 'Saawariya'. But this was something I had to do for the sake of my friend Arjun."

Khanna and Ranbir have been friends forever. "He's my neighbour and a dear friend. I try to wear his clothes as far as possible."

Recently when Ranbir attended his best friend's wedding in Goa, he wore sherwani and other wedding clothes designed by Khanna. For a photo-shoot in Bangkok last week, all his clothes were done by Khanna.

"I try to be faithful to Arjun's clothes because he knows my likes and dislikes and styles my clothes accordingly."
