In the last week of November, while Shakun Batra was busy showcasing his short film Strangers In The Night at a suburban five star, an old 'friendship' was being rekindled in the hotel's elevator. Once rumoured to be lovers, Ranbir Kapoor and Nargis Fakhri were spotted making their way upstairs where the rooms are located in the hotel.

An eyewitness told us, "The short film festival was going on and there were loads of celebrities in the premises. Karan Johar was there. And so was Imran Khan. While others were busy in the show, Ranbir and Nargis remained aloof. They in fact left the gathering and took the lift upstairs towards the rooms."

For those who came in late, Ranbir and Nargis were rumoured to be rather 'close' during the making of Rockstar. In fact, Ranbir along with his close friend Ayan Mukerji had kept Nargis company, when she was new to the city. However, following several reports about their growing affection, Ranbir had distanced himself from Nargis.

Nargis too had moved on. After being spotted with Ness Wadia at KJo's 40th bash, the actress had reportedly become rather 'close' to Uday Chopra. Insiders say that she had even met the parents - Yash and Pamela Chopra once.

And when the YRF scion passed away, she had stuck to Uday's side. Their affectionate banter on social networking sites did not go unnoticed either. Ranbir in the meantime, in between his rather busy schedule has been spotted taking Katrina Kaif out on movie dates.

Needless to say, old 'friends' Ranbir and Nargis had a lot to catch up. And well, the confines of an elevator or a room are more personal than a social networking portal.
