The first teaser of Rajkumar Hirani's Sanju hit the web last week, and left fans awestruck. Netizens were full of praise for Ranbir Kapoor's transformation for the Sanjay Dutt biopic. Ranbir had mastered the nuances and mannerisms of Dutt, and even looked like him.

Ranbir's cousin, Kareena Kapoor Khan doesn't think that anyone else could play Dutt, better than Ranbir.

At an event, she said, "Who better than Ranbir Kapoor to replicate the life of Sanjay Dutt. I don't think there's anyone better than him."

Ranbir and Kareena share a strong bond. In an earlier interview, Kareena had expressed her desire of working with him, once. "I would like to do a nice brother-sister story with Ranbir (Kapoor) at some point in life. There's something magical about our pairing. I have never worked with my sister so hopefully I will work with my brother soon."

Sanju, also stars Anushka Sharma, Sonam Kapoor, Dia Mirza and Manisha Koirala. It will hit the screens on June 29.

"Who better than Ranbir Kapoor to replicate the life of Sanjay Dutt, says Kareena Kapoor Khan when asked about Sanju

The teaser of Sanjay Dutt's biopic, Sanju, was quite interesting to say the least

The teaser of Sanjay Dutt's biopic, Sanju, was quite interesting to say the least. Everyone was in awe of just how much can Ranbir Kapoor resemble his muse! And indeed Ranbir not only looked believable as Sanjay, he looked convincing too. So much so, that people of social media refused to believe it was actually Ranbir that they were seeing on screen and not Sanjay Dutt. Rajkumar Hirani, who is at the helm of the film, seems to stand vindicated now, especially since there were a lot of disapproving voices when Ranbir was signed on to play the part. But, while we had our reservations too regarding the actor, it seems like there is someone who can't see anyone else playing the role.

Ranbir's cousin sister, Kareena Kapoor Khan refuses to believe that anyone else could have pulled off what Ranbir has done in Sanju. While talking about the film at an event, Kareena was all praise for her brother and said, "Who better than Ranbir Kapoor to replicate the life of Sanjay Dutt. I don't think there's anyone better than him. Well, we have to say, we quite agree with Kareena on this one. We can't think of any other actor who can do justice to the role as much as Ranbir seems to have. (Also read: Ranbir Kapoor's Sanju teaser clocks in 30 million views on YouTube in 48 hours, beats record of Rajinikanth's Kaala)

While on the topic of the cousins, this is not the first time that Kareena has been candid about Ranbir. In the past, she has also expressed an interest in working with him. Having worked with Rajkumar Hirani on a film earlier, Kareena also understands his vision and it comes as no surprise that she had absolutely no doubts about Ranbir being able to pull off the role.

Starring Dia Mirza, Anushka Sharma, Sonam Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal in pivotal roles, Sanju is slated to release on June 29, 2018.

Yes, thats true.
On Fillumbaazi even Sanjay said that RK was a perfect replica of him
Then he jokingly addressed Hirani: Raju, kahin Ranbir ko Munna Bhai mein mat le lena 😛

I think everyone would like to see Kareena and RK in a movie someday as siblings
