Ranbir Kapoor

The film marks many firsts. Ranbir Kapoor and Luv Ranjan are working together for the first time. Added to this, the fresh pairing of Ranbir and Shraddha is another big attraction. Coupled with the whacky title, these elements come together to make 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' the most promising love story of 2023.

In the picture, one can see Bollywood actor and Neetu's son Ranbir Kapoor, his wife Alia Bhatt, 'Brahmastra' director Ayan Mukerji, Alia's mother Soni Razdan, and her sisters Shaheen Bhatt and Pooja Bhatt. Sending best wishes to her followers, Neetu captioned the picture: "Merry Christmas."

The title has piqued the interest of the audience, but the excitement around the movie has been immense since it went on floors. Luv Ranjan, who is known for directing hits like 'Pyaar ka Punchnama' and 'Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety', has produced this one too along with Ankur Garg.

The images of Ranbir, Alia and Raha are not very clear in the picture owing to the depth of field of the lens, but one can clearly see the name 'Raha' on the FC Barcelona jersey hanging on the wall behind them. Ranbir is known to be a fan of the Spanish football club, which is at the top of La Liga football this year.

Alia Bhatt, who announced her pregnancy in June this year along with husband Ranbir in an Instagram post, gave birth to a baby girl on Sunday at the H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital and Research Centre in Girgaon, Mumbai. Shortly after the birth of the baby girl, Alia shared the news with a heartwarming sketch of a family of lions. Kareena, whom Alia has idolised over the years, took to the comments section of Alia's post and wrote: "Ufffffff my mini Alia. can't wait to meet her."

Ayushmann Khurrana wrote: "Heartiest congratulations." Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, who herself welcomed her little one, son Vayu, not long ago, reacted by saying: "Congratulations darling girl! Cannot wait to see your princess." Riteish Deshmukh wrote: "Many many congratulations!!!!! Dearest @aliaabhatt & Ranbir - the bestest journey of your life begins today - big love."

Mothers-in-law Neetu Kapor and Soni Razdan were with Alia before she was wheeled into the labour room. Alia and Ranbir had tied the knot on April 14 at an intimate ceremony and only recently, Alia had her baby shower with friends and family members.

With the film scheduled to drop on OTT after its successful theatrical run, Ranbir said in a statement: "Shiva was a very complex character on paper. And we had to do a lot of prep to bring him to life. The way he walks, runs, fights, dances - almost every aspect of his physicality that involves movement- had to be designed."

The video, shared by Ranbir's wife and his co-star in the film, Alia Bhatt, on Instagram shows Ranbir making self-deprecating jokes about the number of times Alia says his character's name, Shiva in the film and how he hates to promote the film. At one point in the video, Ranbir also says that the film's director Ayan Mukerji feels that Ranbir has no life outside 'Brahmastra' when the actor is expecting his first child with Alia.

Days after its release, Neetu shared some of Ranbir's unseen shirtless pictures from his look test for the film in Bulgaria on her Instagram stories. The pictures were originally shared by Ranbir's trainer and lifestyle coach Kunal Gir. They show a shirtless Ranbir in low-waist jeans, with his six-pack abs stealing attention. Two pictures show the actor striking poses as if bringing his powers together, minus the VFX.
