EXCLUSIVE - Ranveer Singh on Gully Boy: The film is perhaps closest to

Ranveer Singh has moved over from being
Alauddin Khilji in Padmaavat to play a street
rapper in Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy. The
talented actor shared his killer
transformation on his social media pages
and people couldn't stop applauding him for
his conviction and dedication.
When we asked him about his
transformation, Ranveer stated, "I like to
switch things up, I like to do different
things. Coming off from Mr Bhansali film to
Zoya film then I have Rohit Shetty film is
interesting. For me, it's very important that I
keep doing different things and the
audience shouldn't know what to expect. It
should come with double excitement
attached to what will come next. I am very
keen on not doing the same thing, to not
repeat the trick. I am very happy that
wonderful opportunities come my way. I
think it's very rich phase for me creatively.
Coming off from the character like Alauddin
Khilji to Gully Boy and from there to Simmba
is like venturing into two opposite
spectrums. To cover that, it makes me
fulfiled as an artist. I am very excited about
my upcoming slate."
In Gully Boy, Ranveer will be venturing into
his forte as the actor is a rap enthusiast.
When asked about Gully Boy, Ranveer told
us, "It is incredible. It is a story of these boys
who come from tough existence. They are a
franchise to a lot of people who have got a
tough life. They found an expression in art
and in music. They have broken through as
recording artists. It's something I feel for,
very strongly and the film is perhaps closest
to my heart after Band Baaja Baraat because
it is my first film but Gully Boy, is closest to
my heart because I am keen to be champion
of this cause of trying to grow and develop
this most wonderful music scenes which are
flourishing and coming out of the streets of
Mumbai."
It was a no-show for Ranveer Singh in 2017
in the movies as he was prepping hard and
shooting for Padmaavat. But in 2018, he has
Padmaavat which released in January and
Simmba, which will be releasing in the
month of December this year.
So, we quizzed Ranveer, if we will be seeing
him in three films this year including Gully
Boy. To which the actor replied, "I am not
sure what the producers have planned. Like
I did throughout my career and also in the
case of Padmaavat, I have focussed on my
performance as in the capacity of an actor. I
don't interfere too much in the prerogative
of the producers."
