The 'Casanova' tag doesn't bother Ranbir Kapoor one bit. The actor, who was earlier in a relationship with Deepika Padukone, and is reportedly currently dating Katrina Kaif, says with time the tag shall be passed to someone younger and new.
"I am arrogant enough to know I am a good actor. So this Casanova image, after I get married in five or 10 years, will pass on to someone younger and new. I am not really trying to work an image. Right now, I am just an actor and trying to sell my movies," the 30-year-old said here in an interview.
"My image is made by my movies, tabloids and magazines. I can't change that. I am very happy with the work I am doing, my personal life, family, friends...with everything. So it doesn't really bother me, I am not here to make an image or break an image," he added.
Photographs featuring Ranbir and Katrina holidaying in Spain were splashed across the media sometime ago. But the actor is glad that he was busy shooting for "Bombay Velvet" back then, and he could keep himself detached from all the news.
"I think I was very busy and was shooting for 'Bombay Velvet' in Sri Lanka. I was completely into the character, so I didn't really get distracted or depressed," Ranbir said.
Being directed by Anurag Kashyap, "Bombay Velvet" stars Anushka Sharma opposite Ranbir. The actor is also busy promoting Abhinav Kashyap's "Besharam", which releases Oct 2.
