Ranbir Kapoor in many interviews has revealed his fixation with number 8. In an interaction for Sonam Kapoor's 'Zoya Factor', Ranbir said, "I don't know how it started as my mum's birthday is on July 8 but I just fell in love with the design of the number and the fact that it also can be infinity," he said in the video. "So when I grew older, if I used to drive to shoots or if I had something that I was really nervous about and if I saw a white car, for example - if the number plate was 4040 or 2222, I used to add them up and if it added to number 8, I used to think I'm gonna kill it... It gave me confidence, psychological of course but it really worked for me," he added. (Watch the video below)
