I'm Only Concerned About My Film's Response Says Ranveer Singh
Ranveer Singh, who was recently in Bhopal to launch the celebratory track, ‘Malhari’, from Eros International’s Bajirao Mastani, is quite a personality — always happy to answer questions, ready to interact with fans, and ever so quirky. But behind this crazy persona, lies a man who is simple, and has his core values absolutely intact. We caught up with the actor after the launch for a quick chat. Excerpts:
Are you worried about your film clashing with director Rohit Shetty’s Dilwale? Do comparisons between films bother you?
I really don’t think about these things, because I am only concerned about the response my film gets. I really wish we have great collections, but for me, the audience’s response is what really matters. I am not one of those people who ask, “Weekend collections kya the?” But I am the one who will ask the questions that really need to be asked, “Bhaiya picture kaisi chali (how is the film being received)?”
There were reports that you have opted for profit sharing in this film. Any plans to turn producer?
No, I only want to explore avenues as a creative person, and I am not ready for things related to business or finances. That side of my brain is actually dead. I don’t even know how much money there is in my accounts. But I need to bring that [side of my brain] back to life as it is high time I start looking at my finances.
