I wanted to hate Ranveer after reading the first few comments here. But seriously! How can you? That's not called interrupting. He was completely into it and very actively participating. And he had no airs despite being the 'star'. Don't get me wrong. I don't even watch his movies. The others on that table are more my cup of tea. But I do know that the masses don't agree with me and that his movies do well and earn much more than the others.

But that doesn't seem to affect him at all. He is one of those people who can get along with most people. I loved when they were discussing ' sona' (sleep) and RKR suddenly joked that Ranveer is wearing a lot of ' sona' (gold). Everyone laughed, including Ranveer and he said ' bhaade ka hai' 😆. Until that moment, I was finding his outfit and all that garish jewelry such an eyesore! But with that comment, he made me instantly loosen up about it.

I did find RKR arrogant but he has always come across as that. Even in his movies sometimes. But I still like him as an actor.

I am a Pankaj Tripathi fan and it was wonderful to hear his shudhh Hindi and thoughts on the subject. He is worth all the hype.

Ayushman is a very good actor and an equally relateable person. Liked his interaction.

Undecided on Vicky Kaushal yet. Will need to listen to more before I can make up my mind about him.

Wow! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Their camaraderie , earnestness and how they put it into words so well! All of them - Very insightful! I specially loved what Pankaj Tripathi had to say, that man is WISE!

Btw, can anyone tell me what movie was he refering to @ 31.53? I couldn't catch it. That lady and court wala scene he talked about...

Edit add: And what was that joke about fielding? 😆

Just watched it, was pretty uninspiring & lacklustre, only liked Ayushmaan he is a delight to hear, Pankaj Tripathi(I don't think he deserved a spot) & Vicky didn't speak much, Rajkumar definitely exudes that I am better than everyone vibe, damn I am glad that Ayushmaan's Badhai ho crossed his Stree both in terms of opening & LT😆

I liked it. Wasn't the best roundtable ever but it was a good watch. I prefer these to one-on-one interviews.

It was boring other than the cricket story of Ranveer and Sachin

So many negative comments on Ranveer really? He was the best infact...humble, down to earth and makes the conversation interesting. Never once it looked like he is interrupting...But he encouraged and praised everyone.

This was so much better than the actress round table. I had to switch that off within 10 minutes of watching. This one was really good. They all got along and supported each other. Lastly, I absolutely loved and respect what Ayushmann, Ranveer and Raj said about the metoo movement. I really like the new generation actors. Vicky and Pankaj didn't say much but you could see that they completely agreed with them too. Now this is how a round table is done.

The way Ranveer praises others is what gets me all the time! Love his spirit

Was it just me ... or was Rajkumar a bit arrogant ? Felt an undercurrent of overconfidence and arrogance

I can see why you'd think he's arrogant. But I think he just talks like that about things he's really passionate about. I did not find him arrogant at all.

This Roundtable is better than actresses fish market 2018. Rani was unbearable.

It is a pattern, every time a ''big star'' like Aamir, Akki, Varun and now Ranveer come, they're bound to overshadow and I have seen some people getting annoyed over that😆
