“I’d like to play Katrina Kaif in her biopic” – Ranbir Kapoor

Any victory speech? Like you said you are a Katrina Kaif encyclopaedia.
Ranbir: Even if I lost, I would be victorious, there is a lot of joy in losing to Katrina, being such an ardent Katrina Kaif fan and encyclopaedia, I was pegged to win. I was the favourite. The odds were against her, she doesn’t know much about my life. It’s not worth knowing. But it’s worth knowing about her and I know everything but there’s still so much more to know, learn and understand and I will continue in my pursuit of knowing Katrina even more and even deeper and all the layers. She is like an onion, layers after layers…and we haven’t even come to the 5% of Katrina Kaif yet.

This is a very touching speech for Katrina Kaif…
Katrina: Emotional…
Ranbir: This is really touching, any reactions from you please?
Katrina: What a wonderful selection of words!
Ranbir: I think if you write an autobiography, you should let me write the foreword for it..
Katrina: I’ll give you a call..
Ranbir: If anyone is making a biopic, let me play you, think about it, Ranbir Kapoor in and as ‘Katrina Kaif’

Ranbir you're a very fine actor, but how will you look so beautiful?
Ranbir: There’s prosthetics nowadays, you know there’s wigs, there’s CG, we’ll use her stem cells and her skin tone and we will CG it to my face, anything’s possible.
Katrina: And if there’s a biopic of you I think how they had Cate Blanchett play Bob Dylan, I think the precedent is already set, and I would essay the role of Ranbir Kapoor...
Ranbir: You?! No.. come on..

So I think this is a wonderful mutual admiration society...
Ranbir: I think we should both take out this film at the same time, where you can play me and I can play you…
Katrina: Yes you can release our version. You can release Katrina Biopic and I can release my Ranbir biopic...

This is really interesting, what will his biopic be called?
Katrina: “ME”
Ranbir: And Katrina’s biopic will be called “I, ME, MYSELF”.
Katrina: No that was not a good one.
Ranbir: Katrina’s biopic will be called…let me think.
