Padmaavat

For the first time, Ranveer Singh was prepping himself to play a villain on the big screen. And after keeping himself locked in a hotel room for one month, the actor entered the skin of the Muslim ruler Alauddin Khalji.

While filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali was prepping for a larger-than-life film celebrating the valour of a Rajput ruler and his wife’s courage but Ranveer grabbed all the attention and made people think about him more than once.

The movie not only turned out to be the highest-grossing film of his career but also won him the third Filmfare award of his career. Ranveer Singh was also awarded the IIFA Best Actor – Male award for his performance.

Gully Boy

The second most promising character played by Ranveer Singh was Murad in Gully Boy. The actor brought a nuanced touch of vulnerability to the character and portrayed the boy next door in Zoya Akhtar’s directorial. Be it Ranveer Singh’s chemistry with co-actor Alia Bhatt or his on-point rapping skills, the 37 years old literally own the character and made this a must-watch.

Ranveer Singh was hugely praised for this film by the critiques and the movie won 13 Filmfare awards in 2020 including the best actor award.

Bajirao Mastani

Now Bajirao Mastani is yet another period drama where Ranveer Singh researched and embodied the character of Peshwa Bajirao Ballad. The 37 years old not only played Peshwa but also gave a touch of his own to the character. After this film, Ranveer Singh hugely earned a fanbase of his own and it was all due to his dedication in bringing perfection to the character.

Ranveer’s wife Deepika Padukone played the character of Mastani, the second wife of Peshwa and global actor Priyanka Chopra played the character of Kashi Bai, his first wife. Both the actors also impressed the critiques with their performances. The film crossed the 300 crore mark at the box office and the movie earned 11 Filmfare awards including the Best actor.

Band Baaja Baraat

Ranveer Singh’s most special film Band Baaja Baraat is the next one on this list. The film did not only mark the debut of Ranveer Singh in Bollywood but also made sure that the actor was here to stay. Ranveer, who was born in Mumbai and has had foreign schooling, played the character of a Delhi guy in such a way that people believed that he was a Delhi boy.

Ranveer Singh’s portal of Bitto Sharma was on point and the actor wore the character’s flaws on his sleeves. His chemistry was appreciated with Anushka Sharma and he also won his first Filmfare award in the Best Debut Actor Male category.

83

Now where the actor has done some acclaimable work in several other movies like Lootera, Jayeshbhai Jordaar, Simbaa and Ram Leela, the last film of this list will be 83 and only because when an actor tries to play a character of a person who died, like Ranveer did in Bajirao Mastani and Pamaavat, both the actor and director have freedom of portraying it in a way that they want. But when an actor plays a character of a person whose not only living but is also famous, the pressure is on the lead.

But Ranveer Singh made it look like a cakewalk. The 37 years old played the character of the first World Cup-winning captain of India, Kapil Dev. Be it his difficult bowling action or his Natraj batting posture, Ranveer Singh nailed it all. Kabir Khan’s directorial 83 was one of the most anticipated films of 2021 but the film could not earn much at the box office due to covid-19 as soon as the film was released on two OTT platforms, 83 became one of the most viewed films in India.

In March 2023, Padukone showcased a performance of the Oscar-winning song “Naatu Naatu” from the film RRR at the 95th Academy Awards in Los Angeles. The song, composed by MM Keeravaani, created history by becoming the first Telugu song to be performed, nominated, and won at the Oscars.

During the introduction of the act, Padukone stated that the next song had an irresistibly catchy chorus, electrifying beats, and killer dance moves that made it a global sensation. This song plays during a pivotal scene in the movie RRR, which is about the friendship between Indian revolutionaries, Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem.

She said apart from being sung in Telugu and depicting the anti-colonialist themes of the film, it’s also a very popular song. It has millions of views on YouTube and TikTok, and people are dancing to it in movie theatres worldwide. Moreover, it’s the first song from an Indian production to be nominated for an Oscar.

The Bollywood actors, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan set the dance floor on fire on the second day of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s pre-wedding ceremony on Friday night in Gujarat’s Jamnagar as they aced the hook step of ‘Naatu Naatu’ song from ‘RRR’ movie starring Telgu actors Ram Charan and NTR Jr.

Khans of Bollywood came together after years and treated their fans with an electrifying and fun performance at a gala event of Ambanis. While SRK and Salman wore black kurtas and pyjamas for the event, Aamir went with a green ethnic outfit.

The video from the event has been shared widely on the internet. A video shared by the SRK’s fan wrote, “Fire on the floor as Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan dance to Naatu Naatu at the pre-wedding celebration of Anant Ambani.”

In a video shared on X, actors Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, and Shah Rukh Khan attempted to do the hook step of Naatu Naatu song but failed to do so. Instead, they performed the iconic hook steps from each other’s famous songs. The viral clip showed Salman, Aamir, and Shah Rukh performing Chaiyya Chaiyya from Dil Se, the towel step from Jeene Ke Hain Chaar Din from Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, and Masti Ki Pathshala from Rang De Basanti.

On day second, it was the integration of celebrations of Indian culture and animal conservation efforts that gave the wedding celebrations a deeper dimension and emphasised the Ambani family’s dedication to both regional customs and global challenges.

On the day first, Anant and Radhika’s pre-wedding celebration featured a variety of entertainment events, such as Cirque du Solei performances.

But everyone’s hearts were won over by Rihanna’s drone show, which was the event’s high point. This also marked her debut performance in India.

Several Bollywood luminaries attended the event, including SRK, Salman, and Aamir. The guest list also included Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani, Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Varun Dhawan, Anil Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Ibrahim Ali Khan, Ananya Panday, Aditya Roy Kapur, Rani Mukerji, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, Ranbir Kapoor, and Alia Bhatt, among others.
