“I’m elated by the fantastic response ‘Barfi!’ has garnered overseas. From Busan to Marrakech to Okinawa to Turkey the film has travelled to many countries and now I’m looking forward to ‘Barfi!’ travelling to Taiwan, Shanghai and Hong Kong too,” Ranbir said in a statement.

Directed by Anurag Basu, “Barfi!” elicited a warm response with its moving story of a deaf and dumb boy, essayed by Ranbir, and an autistic girl, played by National award-winning actress Priyanka Chopra.

The movie has been invited in the out of competition section at the Shanghai International Film Festival in June.

It is scheduled to release in Taiwan Friday, and it is slated to hit Hong Kong screens this September. The movie also released in Turkey earlier this month.

The movie’s production banner is thrilled to see how “Barfi!” has appealed to a global audience much like its success in India, North America, Britain and Middle East, said

“I don’t see anything unethical about the movie. It is purely entertainment. We do not make any film to spoil the society,” Kapoor told media persons at a promotional event for YJHD here.

Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the movie is produced by Dharma Productions.

Ranbir, the grandson of the legendary Raj Kapoor, explained that though the movie is youth-oriented, it is not meant to influence youngsters in a negative way.

“It is not meant to spoil the youngsters, but it is fully entertaining and is meant for them. The story is about four youngsters, their journey in life, their ambition, their first love and their first heartbreak,” said the actor who is here Thursday to promote his film in the city’s educational institutes.

“Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”, releasing May 31, also stars Deepika Padukone, Kalki Koechlin and Sidharth Roy Kapoor.

And with the remake of “Awara”, the Kapoors’ illustrious home banner RK Films would be grandly revived.

Before that Rishi and his talented wife Neetu would be seen on the screen for the first time with their son Ranbir in Abhinav Kashyap’s “Besharam”.

Rishi let out the big secret plan for the great histrionic plan with Ranbir and said: “‘Besharam’ was the testing ground for the two of us together on the screen. We would now like to do something deeper. A remake of my father’s ‘Awara’ is on our minds. And in all likelihood, we will be doing it for our banner RK Films.”

Rishi won’t direct the neo-”Awara”.

“No thanks. Direction is a thankless job. I don’t want to get into that space at all,” said Rishi, who went behind the camera for “Aa Ab Laut chalen”.

“I am very comfortable and happy as an actor. I just want to act. I am at peace with myself. I don’t have to think about anything except acting. I am having a ball. I’ve received loads of messages for my performance in ‘Aurangzeb’. I can’t be happier. The best most touching message came from Mrs Pam Chopra. I’ll treasure it forever,” said the 60-year-old.

As far as “Besharam” is concerned, one now hears that Rishi-Neetu’s roles are being broadened so that the audiences don’t feel cheated by the playing-time featuring Ranbir with his parents.

Said Rishi: “Both Neetu and I enjoyed working with Ranbir thoroughly. I had fun working with my wife and son. But I still feel there should be more of Neetu and I in ‘Besharam’. My only grouse in this otherwise-enjoyable experience was the length of our roles and Ranbir knows it. So they’re trying to expand our roles. Neetu and I play cops. Our characters are seen off and on.”

“The director is trying to increase Neetu and my roles. Of course, Ranbir and I have scenes together in ‘Besharam’, including the climax of the plot. But they’re trying to create scenes where all three of us can be together,” said Rishi who gave hits like “Khel Khel Mein” and “Kabhi Kabhie” with Neetu.

Rishi says his earlier misgivings that Ranbir may be uncomfortable sharing screen-space with him, were completely unfounded.

“‘Yeh aaj kal ke bachcha nahin baap hain’. In any case, ‘Besharam’ is not a film that requires great histrionics from either of us. It’s light, bubbly and frothy and a little dramatic,” he said.

“Godfather means someone who you really are fond of. You want the kids to kind of look up to you and, kind of, mentor the kids,” Ranbir said at an event held to promote ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”.

The two not only enjoy each other’s company but also look quite comfortable with each other after parting ways.

“I don’t know whether I will have my own kids or not but she (Deepika Padukone) will definitely have. So I would love to be her children’s godfather, but I don’t know whether she or her husband will allow me but it will be nice to mentor her children,” Ranbir said

It’ is after five years that Ranbir and Deepika will be seen together on screen. They last featured together in “Bachna Ae Haseeno”.

The actor, who was present on the sets of TV show “Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara”, to promote his upcoming film “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”, says if he gets some good offer, he would love to work on TV.

“When I will get some good offer, when something (offer) will excite me, definitely I would love to be a part of television,” he said.

“Television is one of the biggest platforms today, one of the (most) entertaining platforms. So to be just a part of it would be lovely. But I have not got any offer yet,” he added.

When the actor was asked about signing a film by filmmaker Zoya Akhtar, he denied it and said there was no such film.

Rumour mills are abuzz with the news that Zoya is making a film on the relationship between a brother and sister, and she is keen to cast real-life cousins Ranbir and Kareena Kapoor in the lead roles.

“I have not been offered any such film (by Zoya Akhtar). The thing is that we all are friends, so even if we are meeting, people think that talks about some film is going on between us,” he clarified.

“Currently I am doing ‘Besharam’, then ‘Bombay Velvet’ and after that I am doing Imtiaz Ali’s next film,” he added.

The special episode of “Pyaar Ka Dard Hai…” featuring Ranbir will be aired May 27.

“Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”, directed by Ayan Mukerji, will hit the big screen May 31. The film features Deepika Padukone with Ranbir.
