Barfi movie, India's official entry for the foreign film entry at the Oscars, won hearts at the Busan International Film Festival, evoking a standing ovation from an audience of 4,000 people.
Barfi actors - Ilena D'Cruz, Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor are thrilled.
Indian filmmaker Anurag Basu's "Barfi!" is among a record 71 films vying for a nomination in the best foreign language film category for the 85th Academy Awards.
As both the actors Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra, were rooting for their film "Barfi!" at the ongoing Busan International Film Festival (BIFF), they had to give a miss to megastar Amitabh Bachchan's 70th birthday bash even.
Actor Ranbir Kapoor was present at the DVD launch of "Barfi!" and was also accompanied by director Anurag Basu and actress Ileana D'Cruz.
"There is nothing that has been offered to me. I don't believe in first lead, second lead, third lead. I had myself done a film called 'Raajneeti', where there was nothing like I am the the first lead or somebody else was second lead. It was a good script and if it's a character that individually excites me first as an actor, of course I do it. But there is no film as such that has been offered to me," said Ranbir.
On the film front, Ranbir is busy shooting for "Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani". Besides that, he will also be seen in "Besharam" and "Bombay Velvet".
After striking gold with Barfi movie, actress Priyanka Chopra has bagged a meaty role in Yash Raj Films' (YRF) "Gunday".
Actress Priyanka Chopra, who has been approached by various non-orofit organisations to celebrate World Autism Day Dec 3, has requested them to come together and organise a combined event. The offers came her way after the 30-year-old won accolades for playing an autistic girl Jhilmil in Anurag Basu's "Barfi!".
