Ranveer Singh
Ranveer Singh Bhavnani (pronounced [rəɳˈʋiːr sɪŋ]; born 6 July 1985) is an Indian actor who works in Hindi films.He gained praise for playing a melancholic thief in the drama Lootera (2013) and established himself as a star through his collaborations with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, beginning with Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela (2013).Following a series of commercially unsuccessful films, he starred in Karan Johar's romantic comedy Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2023)."[18] In 2010, Singh auditioned for a lead role in Maneesh Sharma's Band Baaja Baaraat, a romantic comedy from the production company Yash Raj Films.[37] In 2014, Singh starred as a Bengali criminal in Ali Abbas Zafar's Gunday, alongside Arjun Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Irrfan Khan.[38][39] David Chute of Variety praised Singh's screen presence and wrote that he "tucks the movie's center of interest under his arm and takes it with him — even though he has the could-be-thankless "good brother" role".[41] Gunday proved to be Singh's biggest box office opener,[42] and eventually emerged a box-office success with a revenue of ₹100 crore (US$12 million) worldwide.Writing for Mumbai Mirror, Kunal Guha found Singh to be the "surprise element" of the film; he praised his "immaculate comic timing" and took note of his subtlety.[54] Jay Weissberg of Variety found the film to be an "overly energetic twist on the old friends with benefits theme" and criticised Singh's "manic behavior".[57] Right-wing Hindu groups speculated that the film distorted historical facts and issued violent threats against the cast and crew.[58][59] Ankur Pathak of HuffPost criticised the film's misogynistic and regressive themes, but praised Singh for his "astute brilliance" in depicting Khilji's bisexuality.[62] With a worldwide gross of over ₹570 crore (US$66 million), it ranks as Singh's highest-grossing release and is among India cinema's biggest grossers.[67][68] Despite disliking the film, Uday Bhatia of Mint credited Singh for playing his "cardboard creation" of a character with an "underlying sweetness that renders it more winsome than the humorless masculinity of Devgn's Singham".[63] Singh reteamed with Zoya Akhtar on Gully Boy (2019), a musical inspired by the life of the street rappers Divine and Naezy.[70] Singh found little in common with his character of a poor man who aspires to become a rapper, and in preparation he underwent acting workshops and spent time with both Divine and Naezy.Initially planned for a 2020 release, 83 was delayed several times owing to casting and pre-production that postponed filming, and later due to the COVID-19 pandemic in India.[86] In 2023, Singh starred in Karan Johar's romantic comedy Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, opposite Alia Bhatt.[90] Mayank Shekhar believed that he "owns this role like nothing short of an inimitable rock-star",[91] while Anupama Chopra wrote that he "combines the charm offensive with moments of vulnerability and tears with great aplomb".[111][112] In addition to his acting career, Singh launched his own record label in 2019, named IncInk, to promote local musicians.
