COLD WAR ALERT! Here’s How Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor Avoided Each Other at a Recent Award Show

Karan Johar may have managed to bring Deepika Padukone’s current boyfriend and ex-lover, Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor on his Koffee couch, but things have changed since. At a recent award show Ranveer and Ranbir were both present and were barely seated a couple of seats apart, however neither of them made an attempt to even greet each other. That’s right; Ranveer opted for a flamboyant pink suit while Ranbir chose a bling gold jacket for this do. And apparently the duo even walked into the event just a few minutes apart. What was surprising is that RK Jr seemed to be in a pretty jovial mood at this event. In fact, just recently Ranbir had picked Ranveer Singh for the Sui Dhaaga challenge while Karan Johar had chosen Deepika. Then why did the two stars steer clear of each other?

An eye witness at this award show revealed how Ranveer entered the venue before Ranbir. Ranveer was seated just a row behind Ranbir and was even seen mingling with celebs from other walks at this do. After Ranbir arrived, Ranveer was there for barely a few minutes. Alia Bhatt’s Gully Boy co-star walked out without engaging in any kind of formal greetings. Is a cold war brewing between the two?

Despite equal popularity, Ranveer has tasted more success than Ranbir in the last few years. In 2018, Ranveer garnered immense praise for his portrayal of Alauddin Khilji in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmaavat; Ranbir too managed to finally break his box office jinx with Rajkumar Hirani’s Sanju (biopic on Sanjay Dutt). Both Ranbir and Ranveer have often in their conversations praised each other and talked highly about their craft. At a party, Deepika’s ex and current had managed to steal limelight from the birthday boy by dancing on table tops. But looks like that was a thing of past and now it looks like the air has got too competitive between these two heroes.

Both Ranbir and Ranveer have an interesting line up of movies. Ranveer will be seen in Zoya Akhtar’s Gully Boy where he will be teaming up with Alia for the first time. There’s Kabir Khan’s biopic on Kapil Dev titled, ’83. Ranveer also signed his first Karan Johar movie Takht, which will have the actor sharing screen space with Kareena Kapoor Khan. And then RS has an out-and-out commercial Rohit Shetty film Simmba that also features Sara Ali Khan.

Ranbir on the other hand will be working with his ladylove Alia for the first time in Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra, which is a fantasy film trilogy. The actor is being considered for Aamir Khan Production venture, Gulshan Kumar biopic titled Mogul. There’s also Luv Ranjan’s next with Ajay Devgn and Shamshera with Sanjay Dutt.

With both the heroes having multiple big projects it’s only natural that there will be some icy cold vibes in the air when they meet. Let’s wait and watch if this was just one off incidents or then there’s more to what meets the eye at the moment.
