The live wire of Bollywood, Ranveer Singh is very amicable towards the entire fraternity but after three consecutive blockbusters with Sanjay Leela Bhansali in the form of Ram Leela, Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat, his growing love and affection towards the director has known no bounds.

Recently, Ranveer was reported saying, “I am ready to do anything for Mr Bhansali! I understand too well that our collaboration is very special, and a lot of people recognise that, I recognise it too. I hope to do more films with him, and I hope that I am able to create a vast legacy of memorable films with such a special filmmaker.”

Even after the humongous success of Padmaavat both critically and commercially the actor has managed to keep himself humble and grounded. He said, “I don’t get too carried away with success, neither do I get too bogged down by failure. What’s most important for me is that you deliver on your promise to the audience. I have pledged to try and be the best entertainer that I can possibly be, and to see the kind of response, love and praise that people are showering on our performance is extremely heartening for me.”

The actor who is ecstatic about the movie had a lot to share to show his immense happiness over its success. He said, “It fills me with more motivation to go out and work even harder and keep doing good work. Of course, Padmaavat will be a gem in my filmography. It is one of those rare successes that gets the kind of critical acclaim that it has, as well as the commercial success. It’s been an avalanche of love coming from everywhere and it is quite overwhelming”.

The actor has already made himself busy with Zoya Akhtar’s Gully Boy and hasn’t even had the time to celebrate his success. “Things are just flowing along sparklingly, delightfully with Zoya and Alia. I am really enjoying the shooting process”, he said. The highly driven and enthusiastic actor enjoys his work rather than stressing over it. He added, “Honestly, what more can I ask for, it is my greatest gift that I can go to a film set everyday and do what I love doing”.

His next, Gully Boy is a story of street rappers which also stars Alia Bhatt alongside him and will hit the screens soon.
