Actress Parineeti Chopra says if she has an option to flirt with someone in Bollywood, it would be the current heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor.

Mesmerised by the young Kapoor scion, the actress calls him "one of her favourite actors of the current generation".

And why not? After his unimpressive debut with "Saawariya" in 2007, Ranbir climbed up the success ladder with his performances in "Rocket Singh - Salesman Of The Year", "Wake Up Sid", "Raajneeti", "Rockstar" and "Barfi!" and has become an actor to reckon with.

His forthcoming is "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" and he also has "Besharam" and Anurag Basu's untitled biopic on legendary singer Kishore Kumar in the pipeline.

"If I had to choose (whom to flirt with in Bollywood) then it would be Ranbir Kapoor," said Parineeti, who made her debut with 2011 film "Ladies vs Ricky Bahl" and later featured in political thriller "Ishaqzaade".

The 24-year-old was talking at the launch of Chinese Internet giant Tencent's We Chat messenger application.

Currently endorsing a host of different brands, she said: "For me, I need to have some kind of personal connect (with the brands I endorse)."

"I am endorsing few different brands right now and all those brands and I have some kind of personal connect. Either I have used that in my childhood or I am using that currently," added the actress seen in commercials for Maaza and Kurkure, among others.

As far as films are concerned, she is busy shooting for "Hasee Toh Phasee" with Sidharth Malhotra.
