"I won't give her a chance to cheat on me"

His launch film Saawariya may not have rocked at the box office, but the critics loved him (so did the girls). He has what it takes to be a star - looks, lineage and going by the reviews, even talent. He's already signed by a Yashraj film co-starring Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif, Miniisha Lambe and Deepika Padukone. Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh's son Ranbir seems all set for a long innings in Bollywood.

No. But I am 25 right now and probably would want to remain 25 all my life. This is the best phase of my life.
