Like any other actor, Ranbir Kapoor has experienced the highs as well as lows vis-\u00e0-vis box office exploits. In fact, before tasting humongous success with Sanju, Ranbir Kapoor faced failures with movies such as Besharam (2013), Roy (2015), Bombay Velvet (2015), Tamasha (2015) and Jagga Jasoos (2017). Interestingly, a few weeks back, film-maker Vidhu Vinod Chopra \u2013 who also produced Sanju \u2013 stated that Ranbir\u2019s \u201cchoice of scripts\u201d has been \u201cvery stupid\u201d.<\/p>\n
But the Kapoor scion doesn\u2019t think so. \u201cI don\u2019t agree with him (Chopra). That\u2019s his point of view. I don\u2019t regret (being a part of) any film that I have done (till date). Be it Bombay Velvet, Saawariya (2007) or Jagga Jasoos, they all came naturally from (within) me. So, they will always be a part of me. It\u2019s like they are your children so yes, the successful ones are obviously there but it\u2019s the failed ones that you will (always) be close to because you are always like, \u2018why didn\u2019t people love them?\u2019 You always feel attached to them,\u201d says the actor.<\/p>\n
In fact, Ranbir is \u201cvery proud of a Bombay Velvet, a Saawariya or a Jagga Jasoos\u201d. \u201cI had an incredible experience while working on these films. They have really added [a lot] to my growth as a person as well as an actor,\u201d he says, adding that he is \u201ccompletely at peace with himself\u201d. He explains: \u201cBut when it comes to work, there is constant insecurity and desire to do better. Actually, success and failure doesn\u2019t matter that much to me because I know I still have opportunities [in my career].\u201d
\nRanbir Kapoor as Sanjay Dutt in Sanju.<\/p>\n
Ranbir admits that he isn\u2019t \u201cworking in movies to put a roof on my head or have my next meal\u201d. He says: \u201cI am a part of it because of my passion. I understand the position I am in today and the platform that I have been given. In fact, I am very grateful for it. I have a lot of gratitude, especially since even after certain failures; filmmakers such as Rajkumar Hirani and Ayan Mukerji still want to work with me. Also, I am very happy with the films that are offered to me. So, I am in a very happy and positive place in my life.\u201d
\nWould he be a little more careful about his film choices now? \u201cNot really. I mean that way even Sanju \u2013 to start with \u2013 was risky as it\u2019s a biopic on Sanjay Dutt. Also, what Ayan (Mukerji) is trying to do with Brahmastra makes it a \u2018risky\u2019 film as well. So there\u2019s nothing sure shot in this industry, unless you are Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, or have reached a certain place (in career) where the audience loves you (a lot).\u201d<\/p>\n
Even as Sanju becomes one of the biggest money-spinners ever in Hindi cinema, Ranbir feels it\u2019s important for him to have successful films to his credit. \u201cAudiences don\u2019t love me [personally]; they love me in films. So the next few years are very important and critical for me because I have to really consolidate a strong fan base. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important that I make some good and successful films right now,\u201d says the actor, adding that his next few films will help him \u201camass a fan base that will support me in my failures as well as successes even after 20 years, if I continue to act till then\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
