Though reports of Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor’s impending 2019 engagement have been doing the rounds, a close friend of the Kapoors completely debunks the reports, asserting that the couple’s focus is elsewhere at the moment.
Says the source, “Of course, Ranbir and Alia are serious about one another. But right now, their focus is on seeing Ranbir’s father Rishi Kapoor fully recover from his illness. Only then will the couple take their relationship to the next level. So there is absolutely no truth to reports of a June engagement.”
The family friend adds that both Ranbir and Alia are taking the relationship very seriously. “We’ve never seen Ranbir more involved and committed. Alia is now very much part of Ranbir’s family. She gets along well with everyone in Ranbir’s family and is keeping tabs on Rishiji’s health as he recovers in the US.”
On a lighter note, the family friend adds, “Why would Ranbir and Alia set a target of getting engaged after finishing their film together (Brahmastra)? In fact, after seeing so much of one another on the sets, they may not want to see each other for a while.”
