When it comes to the new Bollywood stars who win the hearts of the audience with their simplicity and deeply, Ranbir Kapoor’s name comes at the top. Born on 28 September 1982 in the famous Kapoor family of Mumbai, Ranbir is not only an actor, but is an actor that brought Indian cinema to new heights.

Ranbir Kapoor’s father Rishi Kapoor and mother Neetu Kapoor left their mark on the silver screen, while Dada Raj Kapoor gave Indian cinema recognized at the world level. But Ranbir made his own way, a path which is illuminated with his talent and passion.

Ranbir Kapoor dominated every character
In 2007, Ranbir started his career with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Sanwaria’. Even though the film did not rest at the box office, Ranbir’s innocence and his presence on the screen caught everyone’s attention. The journey started from Von continued to gain momentum with films like ‘Wake Up Sid’ and ‘Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year’. In ‘Rockstar’, his obsessive character ‘Jordan’ shook the audience, then through a dumb-bound character in ‘Barfi’, he proved that true acting is beyond words.

Fan-followed by becoming ‘animal’
In ‘Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani’, Ranbir brought alive the intricate life of Sanjay Dutt in his character’s careless freedom and ‘Sanju’. In Sandeep Reddy Wanga’s ‘Animal’, he played the role of a son who is intent on killing the enemies without thinking for his family and father. Ranbir set a new benchmark every time.

‘Rockstar’ becomes turning point
Ranbir Kapoor’s film ‘Rockstar’ was revealed as the biggest turning point of his career. But very few people know how big an emotional price he had to pay to put the pain of the film ‘Janarda/Jordan’ on screen. He had bitten himself from the whole world for his character in the film. He shared the story related to this in one of his interviews.

In fact, Ranbir’s character in ‘Rockstar’ goes through the journey of Rockstar ‘Jordan’, a rebel from a straightforward boy ‘Janardan’. Director Imtiaz Ali wanted Ranbir not to show the emotional emptiness of his character, but feel. Imtiaz Ali believed that great art arises only by true pain.

Imtiaz Ali did such demand by Ranbir Kapoor
For this, Imtiaz Ali made a unique and difficult demand from Ranbir Kapoor. Imtiaz Ali asked Ranbir to keep himself completely separated during the shooting. Ranbir obeyed his director. He deliberately started keeping himself away from the rest on the set and outside the set. Ranbir reduced the conversation with his friends and even the people on the set. He used to remain calm most of the time and tried to feel the pain of his character.

This isolation was mentally very difficult for Ranbir, but this helped him understand the pain and loneliness that was the identity of his character ‘Jordan’. It was not just acting, but was a mental preparation where the actor sank in the character’s feelings bypassing his personal life.

Ranbir Kapoor became Lord Ram in ‘Ramayana’
It was the result of this out of the box that Ranbir Kapoor gave a best performance of his career. It shows that Ranbir Kapoor’s success is not only because of his good look or charm, but because of the deep passion and sacrifice that he does for every character. Now we will play the role of Lord Ram in actor Nitesh Tiwari’s ‘Ramayana’.
