Ranveer is impressed with KGF 2
Ranveer Singh is the latest celebrity to laud Yash’s KGF: Chapter 2. In a recent interview, the actor confessed his love for commercial cinema and called it ‘his first love.’
In an interview with Anupama Chopra, the actor praised Yash and said, “When I watched KGF: Chapter 2, I was like wow. Rocking Star Yash..woohoo. Throughout the movie, I was like, ‘Kill him Yash, kill him.’ I loved that kind of cinema. It’s my first love. Whether it’s Magadheera or KGF, I watch such films at night alone in bed and end up clapping. In spite of not watching with an audience, I am still hooting and cheering. Such is my love for that kind of cinema.”
Machismo films
Citing the example of machismo films such as Pushpa, KGF: Chapter 2, and Sooryavanshi, in which he had a special appearance as Simmba, the actor said it is a coincidence that Jayeshbhai Jordaar is up for a release when these titles have rocked the cash registers with their record-breaking collections.
“Not that this was by design, we created the film and had to wait for the release. It has just so happened that it comes in a phase where the last few successful films at the box office have been Sooryavanshi, Pushpa, KGF: 2, and RRR. So, in this ongoing trend, here comes the googly in Jayeshbhai Jordaar,” Ranveer said.
The 36-year-old said while his default mode as a performer is “a mass Hindi film hero”, he wants to play characters as diverse as possible on screen.
“When I started watching movies, I started with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone. Amitabh Bachchan for his macho, larger-than-life characters like Shehenshah. Characters with machismo that do these cool things and do them with great style and panache. I am that and I have done that successfully in Simmba and I hope to do more such films because I love them.
On the work front, Ranveer Singh is awaiting the release of his upcoming film Jayeshbhai Jordaar. The film will star Arjun Reddy fame actor Shalini Pandey, Boman Irani, and Ratna Pathak Shah, Jayeshbhai Jordaar is set to be theatrically released on Friday.
