Ranveer Singh
Ranveer Singh is no stranger to playing the quintessential Delhi boy roles. Many of the actor's early roles, from Bittoo Sharma to his various aliases in Ladies vs Ricky Bahl, to Kabir Mehra in Dil Dhadakne Do, have shown how he has perfected playing the loud, bordering on obnoxious yet lovable 'Delhi ka launda.' Last seen in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani, it seems like Ranveer Singh has mastered every part of this persona.
Ranveer's performance as Rocky Randhawa took us back to 2010, reminding us of his iconic role as Bittoo Sharma in the hit movie Band Baaja Baaraat. Directed by Maneesh Sharma, this romantic comedy marked Ranveer Singh's debut and introduced him as Bittoo Sharma, a lively and ambitious young man from Delhi with dreams of starting a successful business.
His outstanding performance won critical praise and won over audiences across the country. Ranveer captured the spirit of a Delhi boy perfectly, with his energetic personality and spot-on portrayal of Bittoo's emotions and quirks.
"Voh butter knife hai": Ranveer Singh's line in "Dil Dhadakne Do" is iconic in its own right. Ranveer played Kabir Mehra, a wealthy guy from a Punjabi family who's trying to figure out what he truly wants versus what's expected of him. Ranveer nailed this complex role, showing Kabir's personal and family struggles.
