Ranbir Kapoor is one of the charming actors in Bollywood. The Rockstar actor has been a part of some of the most iconic movies like Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani, Barfi, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Rajneeti and Sanju. He is going to be back on the silver screens after more than 4 years with Shamshera and has been energetically working on other future projects too, which will see a release next year.

In a latest media chat, the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani star was asked about what was the most challenging part of making a film like Shamshera apart from the physical transformation. Ranbir responded by saying that the physical transformation had become an occupational hazard and for a movie like Shamshera, it was necessary for a quintessential hero and heroine to look physically fit. Also, the film, being based in the 1800s, required a certain build and body for the character, as instructed by director Karan Malhotra. He further added, “It has been the most toughest film of my career, physically, mentally, playing 2 characters, matching Karan’s imagination and vision for the two characters, and that was hard for me because it is not something that comes naturally from me and its something that is way out of my lane. With a lot of help from Karan, hair & make-up team, cast and crew, I think we managed to make both the characters distinct and engaging. You feel for them, you have empathy for them, you cheer for them and for these qualities of a character you put on-screen, there is nothing greater than that.”

In the meantime, Ranbir Kapoor starrer Shamshera will release on 22nd July, 2022.
