Agreed, both Ranbir's and Imran's sweet-as-sugar looks have stolen heartsbut ladies, looks can be deceptive. Best friends not so long ago, the twoactors have ended their friendship on a very bitter note. Believe it or not, but sources say that they have stopped talking to each other completely.
And it seems to be a classic case of the girlfriend coming in the way of two close friends. Ranbir?s friendship with Imran went sour soon after Imran's fianc?e Avantika Malik made some caustic remarks at him in a theatre, while watching his film Raajneeti. It was reported that she was very loudly critical of the film. Ranbir, who won a lot of accolades for his portrayal in Raajneeti, did not take to this kindly. "He is now maintaining a distance from both Imran and Avantika," says a source.
Talks of their friendship ending started doing the rounds when Ranbir refused to attend Aamir Khan's party for Peepli Live music composer Gustavo Santaolalla, which was organised at Imran's Pali Hill residence. Ranbir's house is a stone throw away, but he chose not to go.
A few days later, Ranbir decided not to attend the premiere of Imran's filmI Hate Luv Storys, held in a Juhu multiplex. "Of course, Karan had invited Ranbir, who was very much in town shooting for Anjana Anjani," says the source.
Both Ranbir and Imran happen to be rival contenders for the crown of Bollywood Prince. Is that to be blamed too? "That's another reason," says the source, "But that too stems from the friction that started after Avantika's caustic comments at Ranbir. Yeh dono toh pehle se competitors rahe hain. But it was healthy competition. After what Avantika said, there is hostility."
By now, Imran has got the message. What is interesting is that all this has sparked a burning desire in Imran to spruce up his publicity. That is exactly why he has become so media-savvy these days.
During their good old days, both Ranbir and Imran had hosted the FilmfareAwards function (February 2009). The two had also walked the ramp together for a leading fashion designer. There was even a buzz that they wanted to start a production house together. And to top it all, who can forget the two boys hanging out together on their numerous nocturnal drives up and down Pali Hill on Ranbir's Segway?
