Still a long way to go, says Ranveer Singh

Young Bollywood actor, Ranveer Singh stepped into stardom with his debut blockbuster ‘Band Baaja Baraat’ and his second flick ‘Ladies Vs Ricky Behl’ also did a good business at the box office.

Ranveer is a fine artist and therefore, his fans have started calling him the next big star in the Bollywood. The young man, however, is not taking such comments seriously, and aiming to work even harder to become a real superstar.

He said that the people are rating him the next big thing in the Indian cinema industry, but he still has a long way to go.

"People started calling me the next big thing after ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ but I don’t take such things seriously. By no means am I the next big thing and I don’t allow such notions to get into my head. It is the end of an actor if he starts believing himself
to be big. I have a long way to go. Sky is the limit," Ranveer told PTI.

The 26-year-old is now working on Anurag Kashyap’s ‘Lootera’ and he is determined to prove his mettle as a versatile actor.

"I want to have a wide range and frankly for me the most important thing was to break the image of ‘Bittoo Sharma’. A year ago when I had spoken on stage at an awards show, Abhinav Kashyap (‘Dabangg’ director) said to me that he was surprised I could speak
in English. He said that Bittoo Sharma had become such a cult character that despite being a filmmaker himself, he was forced to believe that I was playing my real self onscreen," he added.

Ranveer shared that even though he is happy to receive compliments from his seniors, he does want to be complacent. Talking about his future plans, the young star described that he is receiving a lot of offers, but will do one project at a time.

“I try to do things step by step and now that I am doing ‘Lootera’, my second film would have to wait. I do one film at a time and then move on to the next," he uttered.
