Alia Bhatt Was Asked If ‘R’ Is Lucky For Her (No Points For Guessing The Ranbir Kapoor Connection). She Said…

New Delhi:

Alia Bhatt left her fans (and most probably boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor) blushing on Thursday, courtesy her quick-witted reply to a reporter at the trailer launch of her upcoming film RRR. Alia, who was attending the trailer launch event with director SS Rajamouli and co-stars Jr NTR, Ajay Devgn, was asked by a reporter if the alphabet R, which is “trending” these because of the film RRR, is a “lucky factor” for her, hinting at Ranbir Kapoor. The actress first laughed and then looked at Ajay Devgn sitting beside her shyly before answering: “I am stumped. Mere paas jawab nahi hai…I am trying to be intelligent. I don’t have a good answer.”

She paused for a bit as the audience cheered for her and continued: “‘R’ is a lovely alphabet, but so is he.” Very smart, Alia Bhatt, very smart.

After Alia’s reply, her fans and media persons at the trailer launch began hooting for her.
