Is Romance in the air?

The hottest rumour doing rounds is, Rani Mukherjee is having a clandestine love affair with star director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

What adds fuel to the fire is Sanjay’s preference for Rani Mukherjee in all his big projects, the recent one being Sanwariyaa in which she is doing another important role like the one in Black.

Besides, there are talks galore that both Rani and Sanjay are visiting each other houses and spending a lot of time together.

Rani makes no bones in admitting her close relationship with Sanjay as she says, “I share a wonderful friendly relation with him. His mother cooks my favourite food, whenever I visit him. Even I love to prepare his favourite Rice-Chhola, Malai Kofta etc. He often drops in at my house and enjoys my hospitality. We share a very warm bond.”

When queried about the rumour that she is going around with Bhansali for past some time, she says, “Sorry to disappoint people but these are totally imaginary stories. There is not an iota of truth in them. I am not having any affair with anyone in the film industry. I am single at the moment.”

On asked about the most uncomfortable thing she finds doing onscreen, she quips: “I don’t want to do kissing sequences. I feel very uncomfortable doing it. Though I have done a couple of kissing scenes in the past with Kamal Hasan, Saif Ali Khan and Abhishek Bachchan, but all these kisses are shot in a very aestheic manner. Even then I have never been comfortable in doing them. I prefer not to do kissing scenes unless it’s an integral part of the story.”
