Ranveer Singh has proven himself to be one of the most enterprising, versatile and experimental actors in the Hindi film fraternity. And currently, the dapper lad is basking in the success of his recently-released 'Padmaavat'. He is also busy shooting 'Gully Boy' where he will star alongside Alia Bhatt. During an interview with a leading news channel, the actor opened up about how he always wanted to be an actor and how he thought he couldn't break into the industry.
He said, "The only thing I ever wanted to do was to become an actor. And then it’s in around 10th grade that I realised that in the position that I am in the film industry the way it is structured is very nepotistic. At the time when it was around the year 2000 when I was in 10th grade and I was looking around me the only people who were getting break were sons of actor, director and producers there was Abhishek Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Tusshar Kapoor and Zayed Khan, you know everybody had a lineage, there was absolutely no example to go by, to kind of pace, to take a bunt on, that if he has done then why can’t I do, there were only Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar and that too years ago.''
''It was just too farfetched for me at the time at the age of 15 to think that I would get a break in the film industry, so I actually let go of my dream. I said let me become a copywriter and I was pursuing that. I was a student of Mass Media for four years. By chance, I took an acting class and they asked me to perform something on the first day and I did. And I felt this immense rush you know that came back to me. I was like men, this is when I feel the most alive,'' he added.
Well, we couldn't be more proud of him and so glad that he is finally enjoying the fruits of his labour. If anyone...he totally deserves it!
