Bipasha Basu and Ranbir Kapoor took a day off for a photo-session to check out their on-screen compatibility.

While Bipasha coloured her hair, Ranbir cut his tidal tresses from Saawariya to a much more manageable length.

Ranbir's immediate struggle is to get into three different looks for three phases of his character's love life in his next movie for Yashraj films to be directed by Siddharth Anand.

For the film, which Ranbir insists is not a remake of the 1999, Chris O'Donnell romantic comedy The Bachelor, the actor is required to have three different looks.

The character has to go from the ages of 17 to 28 and finally to the age of 35.

Will the 25 year old actor be able to pull off the role of a man 10 years older?

The director and the actor have spent the last one week getting Ranbir to look older. The actor had his long hair cut (by Aalim) into an austere, executive styled haircut. Ranbir also plans to sport a stubble to look 35 years old.

For role of the character at the age of 17, Ranbir intends to sport long hair and a beatnik cool-dude attitude, with clothes and accessories to match.

Says Ranbir, "I have to look compatible with my leading ladies, and yes, this is my first of the three looks for the new film. Working with Siddarth is a very give-and-take thing. We've been friends from the time both of us were kids. His father is my dad's best friend and his mom and my mom are close friends. So naturally we had no choice but to be friends."

So will Ranbir be working with his childhood chums turned directors, just like the other star-son Abhishek who has done two films with pal Goldie Behl?

"I don't know about the future. But right now it's fun working with a friend," says Ranbir.
