There’s something about Ranbir Kapoor – in certain ways, he can seem like your regular ol’ good guy (he’s got the chocolate boy good looks plus he’s a bit of a mama’s boy), but in other ways, he’s a complete besharam. He’s living up to that other side of him now with the release of Besharam, so in case you want to ape him, we’re presenting to you A Comprehensive Guide on Being as Besharam as Ranbir Kapoor. We just hope you’re sitting up and taking notes!

He’ll put in public appearances, but Ranbir isn’t a fan of being photographed when he’s not at an event… and he makes his displeasure known in a very specific way.

He may not be a fan of airport spottings, but everywhere else, Ranbir is more than willing to give the shutterbugs something to get happy about. Whether by pulling stunts or simply acknowledging them with a thumbs-up, he gives the photographers something to go home with.

Ranbir went full-on besharam in the first song of his career, but even if you don’t want to drop the towel, there are a whole host of other dance moves you can copy from him.

4. Use the low battery trick
