Katrina Kaif, Ranbir Kapoor phone a friend to bail them out

Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif decided to give the photographers a slip during the screening of Lootera The cat and mouse game that Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif seem to be playing with the media continues. And this time, on the verge of being discovered yet again by shutterbugs, the alleged couple decided to seek help from Vikramaditya Motwane to give the photographers the slip.

It was apparently during a screening of Lootera at a suburban theatre on Friday night that the two attended together, did they realise that a couple of media people had got a whiff of their presence. A source says, "RK and Kat arrived at the theatre in the actress' car. When the film was nearing its end, they dialled the film's director Vikramaditya Motwane to bail them out of the sticky situation."

And a good friend that Vikramaditya is, he reached the theatre promptly to pick up Ranbir, while Kat exited in her car. Cheekily enough, RK even flashed a thumbs-up sign at the waiting media. An onlooker says, "The couple felt they had clearly won the hide and seek game that evening. Kat was seen grinning from ear-to-ear." Kat and Ranbir remained unavailable for comment.
