Ranbir Kapoor wants to play a bad guy



Actor Ranbir Kapoor says he wants to move away from his popular boy-next-door image and play a negative character on-screen.

"I want to play the role of a villain. I like Mogambo. There is something really exciting about villains.. they have beautiful girls around them every time, have lots of money and all the luxuries," Ranbir said.

"Villains have the best life.. I really want to play a bad guy. But the only thing is they have to get beaten up by the hero in the end...but then it is ok," he said.

At a time when big stars like Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn are doing remakes, the 30-year-old actor is not keen on treading a similar path.

"I believe today times are changing in our industry and filmmakers are coming up with interesting subjects. So I feel why do something which has already been done by someone.. why not do something new and different. I don't believe in remakes," Ranbir said.

"I don't think I would be able to do justice if I become a part of any of my dad's or Mr Amitabh Bachchan's remake films. I won't be able to do what they did," he said.

Ranbir will be seen next in Ayan Mukherjee's 'Yeh Jawani Hai Diwani' opposite former girlfriend Deepika Padukone, followed by Abhinav Kashyap's 'Besharam' and Anurag Kashyap's 'Bombay Velvet'.

I like his choice of cinema and respect for the same. At least he's trying something different. I'm still pretty much hung over on Barfi

His char in Rajneeti was grey in some parts.I remember his very sexy evil smiles when plotting in that movie.He'll do great justice to a negative role.Or any role..

Saawariya = DISASTER
Bachna Ae Haseeno - AVERAGE
Wake Up Sid - Alright but too overrated
Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahaani - Okayish. Music was the real winner
Rocket Singh - W*F???
Raajneeti - Everything besides him & Kat was bearable
Anjaana Anjaani - Stupid
Rockstar - Overrated & boring.
Barfi - Decent.

We still cant say whether he has great script sense or not..The only movie of his that I liked is Barfi..Rest were crap or boring but he performed well in most of them..So he is a good actor for me and I would LOVE LOVE to see him as a baddie..I remember his role in Rajneeti..For the first time I found him HOT there ☺️

Personally I dont think he has great script sense. His earlier films with YRF, Dharma, SLB (flop or hit) he got more due to his connections. Many were not successful.
Barfi was decent but somehow I dont want give too much credit to people behind it for script and direction as it was heavily inspired. And I just cannot forget the disaster called Rockstar. So overall I agree with you...in his last two films he performed well. But I still dont think highly of his script sense.
