Ranbir Kapoor is on a promotional spree for ‘Sanju’, every single detail of the movie and star cast is grabbing our headlines.

While speaking to a leading daily, Ranbir Kapoor said, “I saw Sanjay sir for the first time in Kashmir. He was shooting for ‘Sahibaan’ (1993) with Papa (Rishi Kapoor). I recall seeing this tall man with long hair, wearing a earring, dressed in a Pathani; I was quite mesmerised by his aura. I was fascinated with him from the word go. During our growing up years, my sister, Riddhima, had Salman Khan’s poster in her cupboard while I had that of Sanjay sir’s. So, I have always idolised him.”

He continued, “Of course, he’s very close to the family. He treats me like a younger brother and spoils me with many gifts as well as a lot of love. He gave me a Harley Davidson motorcycle for my birthday. He used to pick me up for a drive in his Ferrari late in the night. It seems life has come a full circle with him when I got an opportunity to portray him on screen. Initially, I didn’t have the confidence to play the part. However, when Raju sir shared the script with me, I discovered a human side to Sanjay sir. It’s not the Sanjay Dutt we know. I’ve a lot more admiration and respect for him now.”

On being asked about the Harley Davidson, “It’s at home. I remember I had to hide it from Papa for a long time as he doesn’t like bikes. When he found out that Sanjay sir had gifted me one, he called him and fired him. He told him, ‘Stop spoiling my son, isko tere jaisa mat bana.’ But now, he’s aware that I have the bike. It is one of my most prized possessions.”

Well, that’s quite an interesting trivia. What do you say?

Ranbir is one of the rare actors to have been appreciated for his acting in most of his films, even in his some flops like ‘Saawariya’ and ‘Bombay Velvet.’

Never miss a chance to be amazed by the glitz and the glamour of the Entertainment industry.
