b>Ranveer and Anushka pair up for third film in a row, but continue to claim that they are not 'together'

She says he isn't boyfriend material. He says she is too good to be his girlfriend.

While the exact status of the Ranveer Singh-Anushska Sharma relationship is still a mystery, the two definitely like each other enough to sign up for their third film together. This duo will star in Anurag Kashyap's Mumbai-based period epic drama Bombay Velvet set in the 1960s.

"Anushka plays a fiercely independent women in her new releases Ladies Versus Rickie Behl and Yash Chopra's next with Shah Rukh Khan. She needs a break to prepare herself for a '60s look in Bombay Velvet, " revealed a source.

But doesn't Sharma need a break from Singh after two films together, specially since she claims to find him insufferable? Or are they so compatible professionally that she is willing to overlook the problem?

We tried to get a confirmation from Kashyap, who however, chose to remain silent.

"They want to make a big announcement about the film. It's expected to be the most expensive film of Anurag Kashyap's career so far. Both Ranveer and Anushka have offered to devote bulk dates to Bombay Velvet, so that Kashyap can capture the flavour of Mumbai in the 1960s without interruption, " explained the source.
