Ranbir Kapoor opens up on Alia Bhatt, marriage rumours and Sanju

After sending the grapevine into a tizzy with the news of their nascent romance, Ranbir Kapoor does not want his relationship with Alia Bhatt to turn into a "media circus".

Ranbir and Alia were crowned the new power couple of Bollywood, after he supposedly admitted that he was dating her and their relationship was at a nascent stage.

Now, in an exclusive interview with India Today, a visibly perturbed Ranbir said, "I think when we speak more, we are often misunderstood by the media. I don't want to turn this into a circus. Whatever I wanted to say, I have. Now, I don't want to comment on it anymore," he said.

Industry grapevine suggests that Ranbir and Alia might get hitched before 2020, but Kapoor lashed out at faceless, "villainous" sources who have been spreading such rumours. According to the actor, these sources are the villains in his life.

"I am very scared of one thing these days and it's called 'sutron', which means sources. This 'according to the sources' has become a villain in my life. So, I want to stay away from it (the Alia-Ranbir wedding speculation) as much as possible. I don't want to come anywhere close to it," Ranbir told India Today.
