I coaxed my mother to do a nice jig on stage. We will be performing on songs picturised on my family members. I am sure she will steal the limelight," the actor said.
Actor Ranbir Kapoor, who will be
performing for the first time with his mother Neetu Kapoor on
stage for an awards show, says she is nervous and so is he.
"She (Neetu Kapoor) is very nervous... she has not
performed for a while. Actually, even I am nervous and excited
to perform with her," Ranbir told reporters here at the press
conference of Colors Screen Awards.
"I coaxed my mother to do a nice jig on stage. We will
be performing on songs picturised on my family members. I am
sure she will steal the limelight," the actor said.
Ranbir will perform on his mother's popular song
Parda Hai Parda from the film Amar Akbar Anthony.
The 30-year-old actor also expressed the desire to
shake a leg with all his family members including cousin
Kareena Kapoor.
"I tried to get Kareena to perform for the awards this
time but she was not available. She is a very talented
actress," Ranbir said.
"I won't be able to do a romantic song with her as we
are cousins. So I guess, we will do a Rakhsha Bandhan song,"
he said.
Ranbir's film Barfi! has been nominated in 17
categories at the Color Screen Awards including best film,
best director, best actor and actress, best screenplay, best
playback singer.
"When we were working on 'Barfi!' no one had such
confidence in the film. The result has been a pleasant
surprise. Nominations also do matter to me... I am happy with
it. But it is the support of the audience that matters," he
said.
Apart from Ranbir, all the three Khans are also
battling for the best actor trophy of Color Screen awards. The
contenders include Salman Khan for Dabangg 2, Shah Rukh Khan
for Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Aamir Khan for Talaash, Hrithik
