But the day after her death, he was dancing to choreographer Ahmed Khan's tune.
"We had to take cancel one day's shoot because Ranbir's 'naani' (grandma) passed away. But we managed in two days," said Khan.
The song has apparently been added to director Shimit Amin's "Rocket Singh - Salesman Of The Year" much to the choreographer's surprise.
"Even I was surprised when Aditya Chopra approached me for a song in 'Rocket Singh...'. Then I heard the track by Salim-Suleiman and I was blown. It's a sure-shot hit," said Khan who is riding high on the waves of the "Dhan te nan" track from "Kaminey".
The song was apparently Chopra's and not Amin's idea.
"I've a five-film deal with Yash Raj, so I am at their beck and call. And if it's a song for Ranbir, then it's even more fun," said Khan who has forged another durable star-choreographer bond with Ranbir after Shahid Kapoor.
"'Rocket Singh...' is my third film with Ranbir after 'Bachna Ae Haseeno' and 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani'. We've an almost instinctive understanding of what Ranbir's body language is and how it can be used," he said.
This would the second item number with a Sikh hero after "Singh Is Kinng", but Khan says it is different. "This is a young cute Sardarji having a blast on the dance floor. It's unlike anything anyone has ever seen."
