If Ranbir Kapoor is being seen as the true inheritor of the Kapoor legacy, it is with reason. In his debut film Saawariya a major part of Ranbir’s personality was patterned on Raj Kapoor. And now Rajkumar Santoshi who sees a special spark in the Saawariya star is getting ready to take Ranbir’s acting ancestry to another level.In Santoshi’s Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani Ranbir plays the melancholy lover-boy hopelessly in love with the idea of being in love. The character was immortalized by Raj Kapoor in Mera Naam Joker and before him, Chaplin in City Lights. Ranbir in Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani plays ’Prem’ a true inheritor of the two imperishable heroes from thepast. Says Santoshi, "I decided Ranbir was the right actor for my film from the time I saw Saawar

The Which Cammie Gym Outfit is Your Favorite game could go on for days! Whee!
