Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are co-stars and good friends, and if the new rumour has to be believed, they are more than just friends. The duo is playing the leads in Brahmastra, a fantasy-adventure movie that is producers by Karan Johar and directed by Ayan Mukerji. Recently in a throwback video, where Alia Bhatt revealed she had a childhood crush on Ranbir Kapoor and that they had shot for a photoshoot when she was just 11 years old.

Recently, in an interview to Filmfare, Alia waxed eloquently about her Brahmastra co-star, including giving him a new title. She now refers to Ranbir as the Sonam Kapoor of men's fashion. As you are, Sonam Kapoor is known for her impeccable fashion sense and style of dressing. Earlier this tag was conferred by Alia to her mentor, Karan Johar.

Speaking to Filmfare, Alia said, "I always believed that Karan Johar was the Sonam Kapoor of men’s fashion. But now I believe it’s Ranbir Kapoor. He’s a hidden fashionista. In Bulgaria, he was ordering things just for fun. I saw so many new looks. One day he’d arrive in velvet, then one day in camouflage, then some coloured caps and pants... He’s smashing to a point where I’ve begun seeking his advice whether I should buy something or whether something is working or not. I’ve given the fashionista tag to Ranbir Kapoor. I believe Karan will happily give away that tag because he loves him too much."

So did Ranbir just prove the way to a woman's heart is through a good fashion sense? Interestingly, Ranbir used to date Sonam when they were ADing with Sanjay Leela Bhansali before their debut with Saawariya.

Alia also revealed everything common between her and Ranbir. She said, "Some weird and random things are similar between us. Like he has a fixation for number 8. And so do I. We discovered that when we started prepping for the film. I mentioned my email ID and he asked why it had '8’. I said I just like the number 8. He said so do I. But he’s his own person. He’s a Libran and I’m a Piscean, two distinct star signs. I’m sure there are differences. But on set, we’re similar."

So what do you think? Is there really something cooking between Ranbir and Alia? Share your thoughts below.
