Ranveer Singh Interview With Cine Blitz.
Q) You are in the best phase of your life. What's been the happiest moment of 2018?
Ranveer Singh : I have not felt this kind of joy in my aduit life. The last few weeks have been magical. The year was full of highs and very few lows.
Ranveer : I started the year w Padmaavat which became a huge hit and got me unimaginable accolades for my performance & then went on to have a satisfying collaboration w Zoya & Alia Bhatt on GullyBoy which is special, since it's set against the indigenous hip-hop scene of Mumbai.
Ranveer : Right after that, I shot the entertainer Simmba. So the creative fulfilment last year reached another level altogether.
Ranveer : The highlight however, had to be my dream wedding. I couldn't have imagined having these kind of
wedding celebrations. The kind of vision Deepika had, her meticulously
executing it, and the way it manifested for us gave me the ultimate happiness.
Ranveer : November was an emotional month full of joy, tears of happiness, and beautiful memories with family, friends and colleagues, which is going to last us for a lifetime.
Q) What's the first thing Bollywood's brightest star did after waking up this morning?
Ranveer Singh : I gave my wife a kiss. It's the best way to start ur day. & then I gave her some more kisses. I rushed into the shower afterwards. I had coconut water & almonds before leaving.
You started 2018 with an epic drama where you played the anti-hero. Your character in Simmba had grey shades too. Have you been getting drawn to flawed characters lately?
Ranveer Singh : I have always been drawn to flawed characters.
Ranveer : They are more interesting, have more complexities, and that makes the process of creating such characters on screen more enriching and exciting. Goody-two-shoes characters don't excite me.
Q) Do u have any favourite anti-heroes from yesteryear movies?
Ranveer : There have been some extraordinary performances like Malcolm McDowell's Alex in A Clockwork Orange, Heath Ledger's Joker in The Dark Knight, Amrish Puri's Mogambo in Mr India & Amjad Khan's Gabbar in Sholay.
Q) You have had an amazing journey at the movies. What do you attribute your success and popularity to?
Ranveer Singh : The day I dreamt of becoming an actor, I never thought things would be as big as they are now. I'm doing the best films and working with the finest filmmakers.
Ranveer : The adulation I enjoy is something I can hardly believe, which is why I don't take things for granted. I would credit my success and popularity to the fact that I do my work honestly. I do it very sincerely, and keep my eyes on the prize.
Ranveer : I never forget or lose sight of the core of my profession, which is building characters during the time between action and cut. There are so many distractions in the form of frills that come with the job.
Are there any words that you live by now?
Ranveer Singh : Be kind. Work hard. And stay humble. I've written this on the dry erase board in my vanity van. l just follow that in everything I do, and I guess it's working.
Q) Who are the people who keep you grounded and focussed?
Ranveer Singh : I have a small circle of family and friends. Deepika , my sister Ritika & my friends Navzar, Karan & Rohan make that circle. These are people who are very honest with me.
Ranveer :If I'm doing lousy work, behaving badly or out of line, they will tell me. Deepika has also been a grounding force. Ive been working for 8 years in the Hindi film industry, & 6 out of those 8 years I have been w Dp. There is a lot I have learnt from her as a professional
Ranveer : There's mom & dad. I can never do anything wrong in my mother's eyes, but my dad gives me a rap if I'm out of line. Aditya Chopra is my guide and mentor. He is always there for me.
Q) When u r not filming, where can one find u?
Ranveer :As soon as I get a chance, I go and brush up on my deejaying skills. Apart from that I love playing video games. FIFA is my favourite video game watch football on weekends. I enjoy working out, playing sports & keeping fit.
Q) You have been married for several weeks now. Would you recommend it to your friends
Ranveer Singh : I'm loving it and highly recommend it. I have been married to Deepika in my head for years now. Just a few months into our relationship, I knew she was the one for me
Ranveer : and I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her I had committed my life to her well before the rituals. I was waiting for her to be ready for it.
