Deepika-Kat musical chairs!

From the time they started dating, Ranbir and
Deepika have been inseparable, and she’s also been a part of all important
occasions in the Kapoor home. However, insisders say that Neetu Singh, Ranbir’s
mother, isn’t ecstatic about her son’s choice of girlfriend.A family friend
dismisses this talk, saying, “Neetu is overpossessive about Ranbir and isn’t
going to be over the moon about any girl he brings home until she’s 100 per cent
convinced that the girl is best for her son. However, Neetu is very amiable and
pleasant with Deepika.’’ While Deepika has to strive hard to find complete
approval from her boyfriend’s mother, there is also the added stress about
Ranbir’s proximity with his co-star of Ajab Prem Ki Ghajab Kahani — Katrina Kaif.
That Deepika took time off from promoting Chandni Chowk to China in January and
air-dashed to Ooty where Ranbir and Katrina were shooting because she heard
rumours of their proximity, is known.

A source from the CC2C unit was witness to her
distress. While all of Ranbir’s close friends accept Deepika as his official
girlfriend and are even keen that these two hot stars should actually walk up
the aisle someday, rumours of the Katrina-Ranbir friendship continue to gain
momentum, and with good reason. Talk has it that when Ranbir and Imran Khan were
practicing for the Filmfare Awards at Yashraj Studios, even though Katrina
wasn’t required till much later the same evening, she was there from 11 in the
morning chatting up Ranbir. Katrina and Ranbir haven’t shot for Prakash Jha’s
Rajneeti yet, because RK Jr joins the schedule only in August, but both share a
common secretary and are being tapped by more film-makers as a hot-n-happening
couple.

This is also said to be adding to bahurani Deepika’s
woes. Incidentally, where does Salman Khan, Katrina’s official date, fit in all
this? Well, he is said to be good friends with Asin, who reportedly resides in a
flat that has been rented by Salman. An interesting round of musical chairs is
being played, no wonder the industry can’t stop singing!
