Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor is known for his witty one-liners and humour, especially during his interactions with the media, and the audience got a glimpse of it once again at a recent event.

During his promotional event in Chandigarh on Wednesday for his upcoming film "Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar," Ranbir was seen taking potshots at a BBC reporter.

He took a dig at the IT raids that are being conducted at the BBC offices and also asked if they missed noting the success of Shah Rukh Khan's blockbuster 'Pathaan'.

Ranbir trolls BBC journalist

It all started when the actor was questioned about Bollywood's weak performance at the box office. The journalist was heard saying, "Bollywood ka thoda dicey chal raha hai...". Ranbir responded by pointing out the success of "Pathaan" and asked if the journalist had seen its earnings.

However, the conversation did not conclude there.

Ranbir then went on to ask the journalist which organisation she worked for. When she replied with 'BBC', the actor took a jibe at her over the IT surveys at their offices.

He said: "I heard something is up with you guys as well. What about that? First, you tell me about that and then I will tell you about Bollywood."

About Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar

Meanwhile, on the film front, Ranbir is all set to return to the romcom genre with 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar', which is scheduled for a Holi release.

The film will see him share the screen with Shraddha Kapoor for the first time, and their chemistry has already become the talk of the town post the release of the trailer and songs.

Not just that, but 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' will also mark Ranbir's first collaboration with 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama' director Luv Ranjan.

The film will hit the silver screens on March 8.

Besides, Ranbir also has the release of 'Animal' on his slate and he was seen recently wrapping up the film's shoot.
