# Ranveer Singh’s impromptu rap: After making a stunning entry with a rap, Ranveer did impromptu raps for Ritesh Sidhwani, Alia Bhatt, Zoya Akhtar and Farhan Akhtar. What made it fun was that it wasn’t scripted and you could see him thinking, forming the lyrics and rapping like a pro.

# Memory magic: While the makers showed us the Gully Boy trailer, we observed Ranveer and we have to say he could mouth every dialogue and rap to absolute perfection. He was enjoying the trailer and we loved seeing this side of him.

# Lulu & Tutu spray paint: By now everyone knows Alia and Ranveer call each other Lulu and Tutu sweetly. As a special surprise from Kalki Koechlin, spray paint bottles were handed to Alia and Ranveer, who used it to colour spray the words ‘Gully Boy’ on the backdrop placed on the stage. After completing it, Ranveer wrote Lulu and Tutu with a heart. Adorable, na?

# Ranbir more special for Alia? When Bhatt Jr was asked how she feels working with two upcoming superstars like Ranbir and Ranveer, the actress revealed that both of them are fantastic actors and the only difference is that she is working with one on Brahmastra and the other on Gully Boy. However, Ranveer added that one is more special, while the other is less. Alia blushed, winked and smiled after the Gully Boy actor said this! Did Ranveer mean to say that RK is more special for Alia?

#AliaBhatt on working with #RanveerSingh and #RanbirKapoor: Both of them are fantastic, the difference between them is that I'm doing #GullyBoy with one and #Brahmastra with another.#RanveerSingh: Ek zyaada special hai, dusra kam @AliaBhattCafe @RanbirKUniverse @RanveerPlanet

# No dhop-ing: Alia’s character tells that she will dhop (beat up) anyone if they get close to her boyfriend. But has she done it in real life? Well, doesn’t look like! Alia revealed that she is a non-violent person and hence she would not do it ever, but might dhop someone in her head. Ranveer added jokingly who would ever think of doing that to Alia.

Has #AliaBhatt bashed up someone getting close to her boyfriend? @aliaa08: Not yet, but Zindagi abhi baaki hai. But I don't think I'll do that ever coz I am non-violent. Maybe I'll do it in my mind. @RanveerOfficial: Who can dare to do that to her? #GullyBoy #GullyBoyTrailer
