Neil Nitin Mukesh has said that there is healthy competition between Ranbir Kapoor and himself. Their grandfathers were very good friends. Their fathers share good camaraderie.

"Ranbir and I are of course competitors. But there's no negative rivalry between us. Our respective fathers (Nitin Mukesh and Rishi Kapoor) would kill us if we behaved like two brats fighting for the same roles," Neil said.

"I'm proud that Ranbir's and my grandfather (Raj Kapoor and Mukesh) were very close friends. My father and Ranbir's father adore each other. Ranbir is like my younger brother," he added.

Neil's ‘Jail’ and Ranbir's ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ released on the same day.

"I'd want Ranbir's film to do as well as mine," Neil says. "Fortunately, 'Jail' and 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani' look like north and south poles."
