Adi-Rani’s 'rock-ing' pyaar?

It seems that the Aditya Chopra-Rani Mukherji romance is in full bloom. If sources are to be believed, the reticent Adi is all out to woo his ladylove. Apparently, he has just bought a 10 carat diamond ring for Rani. And there are multiple reasons behind this gesture.

A well-placed source says, “Rani has always been loyal to Yash Raj Films. She agrees to star in most of their projects without any starry airs. Moreover, despite her reigning status, she chose to limit herself mostly to the Yash Raj banner. Also, despite her recent films with the banner (Laaga Chunari Mein Daag, Ta Ra Rum Pum) not doing too well, Rani trusts Aditya’s instincts completely.”

Incidentally, Aditya’s directorial venture Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi does not feature Rani as the storyline does not have a role for her.

“Aditya is planning another sports-based movie on cricket where she might play the role of a captain. Aditya who is very media shy prefers his work to do the talking. Rani has opted to do the same,” says the source. He adds, “Of late, she has become a recluse. She chose not to talk to the media even when her brother’s show was being launched.”

The source reveals further, “Aditya is happy that Rani agreed to be a part of Yash Raj’s Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic, despite having differences with Saif Ali Khan. Director Kunal Kohli wanted to repeat the Hum Tum jodi, which had crackling chemistry. It was only Aditya who could convince Rani to agree to co-star opposite the Khan. Aditya being overwhelmed by her support bought this expensive ring as a token of affection and gratitude,” the source ends.
