Actor Ranbir Kapoor might just have signed YRF’s Dhoom 4. At least that’s what the latest buzz in the media suggests. The actor, who’s currently shooting for Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, will hop on to begin the fourth film in Aditya Chopra’s Dhoom franchise next. As per a report published in Pinkvilla, Ranbir has given his final nod to the makers and Chopra is busy providing finishing touches to the script with writer Vijay Krishna Acharya. A source close to the production informed that YRF is looking at completely ‘rebooting’ the entire franchise and Ranbir would play a key role in the same. Apart from Ranbir, the rest of the casting is going to take place soon and no one from the old Dhoom films will be cast in the fourth film.
The report quoted a source as saying, “Dhoom is a franchise dear to Aditya Chopra, and he has decided to reboot the franchise to keep in line with the current times. Like all previous parts, the script of Dhoom 4 (Dhoom Reloaded) has been developed by Aditya Chopra with Vijay Krishna Acharya. The idea and vision is to create a cinematic experience like never before with the fourth Dhoom film.”
While talking about Ranbir’s involvement in the film and how he came onboard, the source said, “The discussions with Ranbir have been going on for the longest time. He had always shown interest in being a part of Dhoom 4 on hearing the basic idea, and is now finally confirmed to lead the franchise. Adi Chopra feels that RK is the ideal choice to carry forward the Dhoom legacy.”

Ranbir Kapoor undergoes extensive vocal training for Ramayana
The pre-production of Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor, is reportedly in full swing. As per an India Today report, Ranbir will undergo extensive vocal training to play the part of Lord Ram in the film as Nitesh wants Ranbir to sound ‘different’. The film also stars Sai Pallavi and Yash as Sita and Ravan, respectively.
As per the report, the Dangal director is leaving no stone unturned and is doing ample homework. It claimed that he has created a separate team for the diction and dialogue department, which will work closely with the actors. According to the report, Ranbir has already been put on to a diction expert who will ensure that his dialogue delivery aligns with the director’s vision. They claim there’s also a special emphasis on costumes.
India Today quoting a source stated, “Ranbir has a certain baritone and a way of speaking his lines. It is symbolic and if you have even closed your eyes, you can recognise a dialogue purely based on Ranbir’s voice. In Ramayana, Nitesh wants to make sure he sounds different from the characters he’s played in the past. Being a versatile actor, he is enjoying this process of trying something new.” -

Actor Ranbir Kapoor has described his upcoming film Animal as “adult-rated Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham”. As per news agency PTI, Ranbir also said he has played the “most complex character” of his life in Animal. The actor interacted with the media at the trailer launch event of Animal. At the event, Ranbir was asked to describe the film and he said, “Animal is basically the adult-rated Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.

That’s what the core of the film is.” Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham was a 2001 family drama helmed by Karan Johar.
On his character, Ranbir also said that he won’t call it “darkness but it is the most complex character I have played”. Talking about violence, Ranbir added, “That you hit someone and blood comes out, you’ll get bored after 10 seconds. Violence is about the mind, what it thinks, what the human mind is capable of? What is right or wrong, where society is concerned? Is Bobby sir the antagonist or I am the antagonist? Who is right, who is wrong? These are questions as a society, audience, we will start asking after this film.”
Talking about Bobby Deol, Ranbir said that he grew up watching him. He added that when he got a chance to work with Bobby he realised they were similar as people. Ranbir said that as both are Punjabis, so there was an instant connection. He recalled that they were shooting shirtless in London in minus 4 degree temperature but “there was so much warmth between us” adding that they will cherish the bond forever.
Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the film’s trailer showcases a violent world set against the backdrop of a troubled relationship between Ranbir’s Arjun Singh and his father Balbir Singh, played by Anil Kapoor. The film also stars Bobby Deol and Rashmika Mandanna. Animal will hit the screens on December 1. Source: HT -

Vaani Kapoor chuffed to collaborate with Ranbir Kapoor for ‘Shamshera’
Bollywood actress Vaani Kapoor, who is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film ‘Shamshera’, is extremely happy to collaborate with Ranbir, and feels that Karan Malhotra, the director of the film, is a visionary story-teller.
Elaborating the same, Vaani said, “‘Shamshera’ is a dream project for me. To be directed by someone like Karan Malhotra, who is a visionary story-teller, is an opportunity that no actor would ever miss out on. I’m fortunate that he felt I was apt for the part. Karan is obsessed with his craft and the story that he is trying to tell. I’m a director’s actor so I had an amazing time soaking in his vision and plan to make ‘Shamshera’ a truly larger than life big screen spectacle.”
Talking about her pairing opposite Ranbir Kapoor, the actress added, “I’m also teaming up with one of the best actors of our generation, Ranbir Kapoor in the film. This is the first time that we have been paired together on screen and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that people love our chemistry in the film. Our characters have an amazing graph and I hope people love and root for it.” “Set in the fictitious city of Kaza, the period actioner will see Ranbir playing the titular character. Sanjay Dutt plays Ranbir’s arch-enemy in this huge casting coup.”
About working with Sanjay Dutt, Vaani shared, “I got an opportunity to work with Sanjay Dutt and I have been a big fan of his over the years. I loved him in ‘Agneepath’. You have to wait and watch out for him in ‘Shamshera’ because he is again going to give us a villain for the ages in Hindi cinema. He is just menacing and cunning and pure evil.”
Produced by Aditya Chopra under the banner of India’s premier studio conglomerate YRF, ‘Shamshera’ is set to release theatrically in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu on July 22.

Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt tie the knot
Bollywood A-listers Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor got married on Thursday, April 14, not in a big fat Indian wedding spangled with tinsel as many would have imagined but at their Bandra apartment with just family and close friends in attendance. Bhatt, 29, posted a series of loved-up pictures with Ranbir, 39, on Instagram post the wedding to announce that they had tied the knot in their balcony after dating for five years.
“Today, surrounded by our family and friends, at home… in our favourite spot – the balcony we’ve spent the last 5 years of our relationship – we got married. With so much already behind us, we can’t wait to build more memories together… memories that are full of love, laughter, comfortable silences, movie nights, silly fights, wine delights and Chinese bites.
“Thank you for all the love and light during this very momentous time in our lives. It has made this moment all the more special,” the caption by Ranbir and Alia, read.
Alia and Ranbir matched the colour of their wedding outfits in ivory and gold: lehenga and matching kundan jewellery for the bride and sherwani for the groom from Bollywood’s go-to wedding designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee.
After keeping the media personnel and fans stationed outside ‘Vastu’ waiting, the couple arrived for the much promised photo op at around 7.40 pm.
The couple arrived walking hand-in-hand to the beats of drums and greeted the media and waiting fans with folded hands. As they posed for pictures, Ranbir lifted Alia in his arms and walked back to the building as fans broke into a cheerful applause. The wedding festivities were a tight-knit affair with the media stationed outside getting morsels of information about what was going inside till Alia finally shared the pictures from the wedding on her social media pages.
Ranbir does not have an official social media account. Media and those waiting outside were treated to ‘laddoos’ and sweets post the wedding earlier in the evening. ‘Dholaks’ were heard too, perhaps the only concession to the otherwise understated affair.
Boxes of snacks were also distributed among the media personnel, who had been keeping vigil outside.
Given that both Ranbir, Raj Kapoor’s grandson and a scion of the first family of Bollywood, and Alia, daughter of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, are from Bollywood families, the star presence was a given, and kept the cameras whirring.
