It is widely said that superstar Ranveer Singh has shaped cinema as we know it today through his bold, distinct and clutter-breaking blockbuster cinematic choices. From Band Baaja Baarat to Ram Leela, from Bajirao Mastani to playing Alauddin Khilji in Padmaavat, from Simmba to Gully Boy and now 83, in which he disappears on the screen to become the Indian cricketing legend Kapil Dev, Ranveer has wowed everyone with his shape-shifting, chameleon-like artistry film after film. In the last five years, Ranveer has won 3 Best Actor awards, showing his dominance in the industry as a one in a generation artiste.
Having completed 10 years with a body of work that he can already be proud of, Ranveer is ready to take the baton forward to lead the industry in delivering risk-taking, content-forward projects that will shape the next 10 years of Indian cinema. He says, “I have completed a decade and this journey has been beyond my wildest imagination. I am so grateful that I even got a chance to become an actor and filled with gratitude every day. It’s surreal for me to think that I am living my dream, I am so grateful for the opportunities, I value them tremendously. And what a journey it has been these 10 years – from Band Baaja Baraat (BBB) to 83 and I am so happy that I got the opportunity to work with the best filmmakers, to show my repertoire as an actor, to explore my own craft in the diverse genres, to showcase my versatility.”
Ranveer Singh adds, “This journey has been fulfilling but I was a different person I was 10 years ago. When I started with BBB it was an overnight hit and I used to feel I can do anything. But as the years went on and I started gaining more experience and evolving as a person I realized I don’t know anything and I was like man this craft of acting and performance is limitless. There is no right or wrong of doing things – its just creation, its so free flowing, its literally infinite. And so, I realized that and today I’m in a position where I don’t know anything.”
