‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’, Ranveer Singh talks about his debut role in ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’!

Since his debut, #RanveerSingh has been ruling the box office with his “paisa-vasool” entertainment films! The actor will now be seen in ‘#JayeshbhaiJordaar’, a comedy-drama and promoting the same, he reached the sets of Sony Entertainment Television’s #TheKapilSharmaShow with his co-star, #ShaliniPandey! Talking about his debut #RanveerSingh revealed how he would roam around in Delhi University only to absorb the culture of Delhi and in turn become Bittoo Sharma, the hero of #BandBaajaBaaraat who people adored!

Said Ranveer Singh, “I gave the audition for ‘Band Baaja Baaraat,’ and I was told that the role is of a 21-year-old boy from Delhi. So, I worked on my accent by watching all the Delhi based films that were being made during that time, such as Dibakar Banerjee’s ‘Oye Lucky Lucky Oye’. Aditya (Chopra) sir couldn’t believe it when everyone told him that I was born and raised in Mumbai. So, in essence, I was able to convince him in the audition round. Then, to absorb Delhi’s culture, Maneesh Sharma (Director) suggested I join them for the location recce, where my task was to do people’s recce. He told me to absorb the culture, as that would help me understand the character better.”

The actor spoke about his film ‘Jayeshbhai Jordaar’, where he said, “The unique thing about the script was that I had never heard of such a story before. When I was narrated the film, I was crying and laughing at the same time. To induce such a feeling, that’s a rare film. Even though he is a first-time director, it is also for the first time in my life, I said “yes” to a script on the spot! I said, “I have to do this film!”
