There were reports in a section of media that Ranbir would make a formal proposal on his birthday (September 28).
"There was a report that I am getting engaged on my birthday and there is no truth in it... I am not getting engaged or married," Ranbir told reporters here last night at the promotional event of his upcoming film 'Besharam'.
Ranbir feels scrutiny of his personal life is a part and parcel of showbiz but he would try to protect his personal space.
"When I was new in the industry I spoke openly about my relationship. I feel when you do this the spotlight is more on personal life than work. I want to protect my life. I don't want my life to become a reality show," he said.
"I am single till I get married, I think I believe in that saying. I am going very strong with this movie ('Besharam'), I am very excited about it. That is the only excitement I have in my life right now," he said.
"I am very happy with the work I am doing. I am happy in my personal life with family, friends, everything. I am not bothered with all this. I am not here to make or break an image. I am arrogant enough to know that I am a good actor and people will like me for my work," Ranbir said.
"This Casanova image is there since quite some time... So when I get married in five or ten years, the next actor after me who is single he will probably get that (tag). I am not trying to make an image, I am an actor trying to sell movies," he said.
