Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone said they couldn’t rule out working together again and are looking forward to audiences reactions for their forthcoming movie Tamasha.

The duo last worked on the film Bachna Ae Haseeno together in 2008.

Ranbir said, “We both want to keep our separate work identities and be in the type of films that appeal to us the most.

“I understand the value she brings to a film not just commercially but also to my performance.”

Deepika added, “Ranbir is someone I admire a lot for the kind of work that he does, and for his talent and enthusiasm. He is very talented, and so I take his opinion very seriously.

“I like that he is very respectful towards others. He is also someone who does not get visibly affected by people and by situations. He is someone who can focus on the task at hand, and detach from all distractions.”

Tamasha tells the story of Ved and Tara who meet on an island and then promise not to cross paths again.

Ranbir Said, “They don’t feel the need to be tied down through the commitment of a relationship. However, after three years, the girl realises that she is still in love with him, and can’t live without him.

“She sets about tracking him down in Delhi. When she finally finds him, she sees that he has become the worst version of himself possible; he has lost all zest for life.”

The film had a bigger budget relative to other Bollywood movies. And both actors were aware of the expectations. Deepika said, “As an actor, the only way I can give back to a big budget film is to give the best performance that I can. The numbers will follow if it has to, but as an actor, there is only that much you can do.”

Rabir said, “Box office numbers are very important. We all chase numbers but once you make people happy, the numbers will follow.”

“For our generation, times are changing. The day of the big film superstars might be coming to an end. Now, it’s all about the content of the film and the type of actor you are.

“I think we are all inspiring each other, Deepika’s inspiring all of us, the male actors and female actors so I think it’s a lovely time to work in the industry.”
