Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor have often been spotted together. But we don't know yet if they will take their relationship to the next level. But what papa Mahesh Bhatt thinks of it is something every kid of this decade would expect his parent to be like. "What they do to their relationship is something they'll have to figure out. Whether it's heading towards that port called 'marriage' - which is an institution that needs to be questioned in the second decade of the 21st century - is something for them to figure out," Bhatt added further.

‘Comedians are always typecast as comical in movies and series,’ says Vir Das

Comedian-actor Vir Das says he does not see anything wrong in comics being typecast in films and that there is more longevity in a comedians acting career.

Asked if he feels Bollywood typecasts comedians in films, Vir told IANS: "I don't think that is just specific to Hindi cinema. It is specific to all cinema. Comedians are always typecast as comical in movies and series. I don't see anything wrong with that."

He added: "If you can add layers to that and make it a performance that works for you and as your fan base or experience begins to grow comedians can branch out."

Vir, who will be seen in Netflix's upcoming show "Losing It", said that comedians can also branch out to other genres.

"Someone like Eddie Murphy or Ben Stiller or Anupam Kher or Boman Irani -- these are people who started out with comedy but have been able to do dramatic work, negative and positive work. So, I think there is much more longevity in a comedy acting career than the sexy boy acting career," he said.

On the Bollywood front, Vir will start shooting for the second installment of the "Go Goa Gone" franchise in 2019.
