Here's what Ranbir Kapoor is trying to give up in life

Ranbir Kapoor is gearing up to play a superhero in his upcoming film, but before saving the world, he is on a mission to save himself. The star, who has been going through a rough patch on a personal and professional front, is trying hard to kick the butt and also give up hard liquor. According to reports doing the rounds, Ranbir is eager to make ‘new beginnings’ on a personal and professional level. To begin with, Ranbir has decided to stay off alcohol and has reportedly not touched any hard drinks in a while. He has also put his smoking in check. The actor has reportedly reduced the number of cigarettes he lights up in a day. The report claims that the Bollywood hunk has his grandmother to thank for this lifestyle change. Ranbir, who recently purchased a plush pad in Bandra, is currently staying with her grandmother in her bungalow in Chembur. As a result, Ranbir reportedly cut down on his late night house parties and waits till his granny retires to bed before lighting up a cigarette. Now this is a change for the better.
