Ranveer in Lootera OR Gully Boy?

I've had the most beautiful relationship with Lootera over the years. Its a gem that would have worked so magically today. I can almost see the reviews pouring in for it today. The status it would have gotten amongst people who not only watch movies but fall in love with movies and take them with them in their hearts throughout a lifetime.

Lootera is really that movie for me. Its faultless,magical and makes you believe that movies with a soul will resonate somehow within eras and years irrespective of the times and trends during their release.

And a huge part of my heart is owned by Varun. There's shades in him that are so human but they never make it on screen. To this day I havent gotten over his eyes in the movie. When you see Varun plotting you see his eyes vacant the same eyes ignite when he falls in love without knowing. There's something so awfully tragic about a character like Varun and I don't mean the way things end. Its rare to see a character so conflicted so adamant in his twisted ways and yet so unconditional till the very end.

And Ranveer brought life into him without a single misstep. The sweet way he talks to her, the mumblings of sweet whisperings in the beginning, and the way he changes things during their stay together - I don't think Ranveer will ever surpass Varun when it comes to the number of shades one can show in a movie.

Murad though is pretty close but not not close enough.
