As a seasoned observer of the Bollywood scene, having had the privilege of witnessing the rise and fall of many a star, I must say that Ranbir Kapoor stands out as one of the most exceptional talents in our industry today. The man is not just an actor; he’s a craftsman who embodies both technique and instinct, making him a rare gem in this era of mass-produced cinema.

This extensive experience gives him insight into each actor’s unique qualities that set them apart. Recently, he applauded Ranbir Kapoor, expressing his belief that the actor possesses a blend of artistic finesse and practical skill.

During an informal chat with Buzzzooka Events, the filmmaker was asked to name a Bollywood actor who excels at acting and also has a knack for filmmaking, someone who also assists Ali in direction. In response, the Rockstar director stated that “Ranbir Kapoor possesses a good blend of both aspects. He naturally understands the techniques, but he’s also intuitive.” Essentially, he believes Ranbir Kapoor is well-versed in both acting and filmmaking skills.

Not only the director of Amar Singh Chamkila, but also Mukesh Chhabra, a well-known casting director, holds a great admiration for Ranbir Kapoor. In an exclusive conversation with TopMob, Chhabra praised Kapoor for being a star in today’s digital era without any official social media presence. Expressing him as the ‘Number 1’, the director of Dil Bechara stated, “I believe it’s Ranbir Kapoor’s charm that makes people go crazy whenever his films release and yearn for him. In terms of popularity, he stands first.

In 2007, Ranbir Kapoor made his acting debut alongside Sonam Kapoor in the film Saawariya. Since then, he has solidified his status as a skilled actor with numerous successful big-budget films under his belt. Recently, he portrayed a romantic role in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar with Shraddha Kapoor, followed by a complex character in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal.
