Nine years after playing Gujarati lover boy in Ram-Leela, Singh discusses applying his learnings in Jayeshbhai Jordaar

The film’s first look
After a smashing debut with Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), Ranveer Singh hit the big league with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s romantic saga, Ram-Leela (2013). Nine years on, the actor is set to play a Gujarati character again in Jayeshbhai Jordaar. A far cry from the boisterous lover of Bhansali’s film, Singh will be seen as a small-time Gujarat-based businessman in the Divyang Thakkar-directed venture. “I’m playing a Gujarati man again after Ram-Leela, a film that gave me the [standing] of a star in this industry. Ram-Leela made people shower me with love. Even now, when I meet people from the community, they mention how they loved my performance in the film,” he shares.
