Interestingly, this is not the first time that Alia has addressed Ranveer as Tutu on social media. When the ‘Padmaavat’ actor suffered an injury during shooting, Alia had wished him on a micro-blogging site, referring to him as Tutu.

In case, you are thinking only Alia has a nickname for Ranveer, we have something to tell you. The ‘Lootera’ actor calls Bhatt as ‘Lulu’. Yes, you read that right.


Talking about ‘Gully Boy’, the musical drama is based on the lives of street rappers in Mumbai. Ranveer Singh, who will be next seen in Rohit Shetty’s ‘Simmba’ is playing a rapper in ‘Gully Boy’. His co-star Alia Bhatt is currently juggling between the shoot of ‘Brahmastra’ and ‘Kalank’.

The film produced by Tiger Baby and Excel Entertainment productions is slated to release next year on February 14.
