How Ranbir Kapoor Reacted To Fan's Awaara Tattoo
NDTV
A sweet gesture by a fan left Ranbir surprised. The fan got a tattoo of Awara written in Devnagri. Awara was one of Raj Kapoor's most famous films
Actor Ranbir Kapoor was on his way out of the Mumbai airport earlier this week when a fan said he had a "surprise" for him. In footage captured by paparazzi, Ranbir can be seen exiting the airport and getting into his car, a small crowd of fans waving and calling out to him. He's just about to drive off when, instead, he rolls his window down at the behest of a fan who says, "Aap ke liye surprise hain (there's a surprise for you."
It turns out to be a tattoo on the fan's wrist - as he looks at it, Ranbir Kapoor's reaction is one of disbelief. "Chipka hua hai (it's stuck on)," he says. The tattoo is a word written in Devnagari on the fan's wrist and here's why Ranbir's first impulse was to dismiss it as fake - a close up shows the word to be 'Awara,' the name of one of Ranbir's grandfather Raj Kapoor's most famous films. Assured by the fan that not only is the tattoo genuine but also done specially for Ranbir, the actor gives him a thumbs up.
