Apni doston ki hassi mein, sadakon mein, canteen ki omelette pav mein, ek achi film mein, Alia mein. I think the philosophy of positivity in important in such hard times. There's a lot of negativity in the world. I think the search for positivity and light is something that Shiva does," said Ranbir Kapoor.
