Exactly. From posters to trailers - the obnoxiousness is everywhere. C'mon have some creativity or diversity of characters.

Yes and the director isn't known for creativity OR diversity. I think this time he's just going for failsafe family entertainer

Ranveer is playing a punjabi guy and Alia is playing a bengali girl while KJo is successfully playing into stereotypes of Punjabi men being loud, boisterous and flamboyant with their fashion and bengali women, such as Alia here being subdued, dignified and well behaved. The same kinda spiel that Vicky Donor brought a decade back. Ranveer hardly has a hand here, rather KJo refuses to come out of microscopic world.

But isn't it exhausting? He always plays this over-the-top loud fvck boy who is nice. He's just repeating his off-screen persona on screen. He needs to go back to roles like Lootera and Gully Boy where he showed his range. Or even Padmavaat where he made Khilji a stand-out villain.

BBB, RL, Simba - he was loud, funny, boisterous. He is giving the same vibes at least clothes wise.

I dunno about Cirkus.

Jayeshbhai was very different. He was funny but in an underconfident and non confrontational.

83, GB, Lootera, Bajirao even Gunday was different.


I really want him to succeed. Need some actor who hits both mainstream and the slightly more nuanced minds. He's the one who's proved he can do both.

Besides the shankar movie and takht what else has been shelved? Takht was shelved coz of covid, thats when kjo decided to make rrkpk. The remake of Anniyan was shelved coz the original producer/writer did not want it to be remade, they were getting into legal trouble.


Ranveer made the best decision to part ways from yrf, they did not help him with his career and were giving him rubbish projects.


Ranveer has been spotted at multiple meetings, he has been seen at slbs office alot so baiju bawra is most likely happening and seems to be his next

Rohit shetty on stage said Ranveer was doing movie with Shankar and Sanjay bhansali while promoting Cirkus. But Velpari and Baiju both are now not happening because of budget issues. Both were to be produced by PEN who backed out. Parting with YRF talent is a good choice but you can't deny that it slowed things down for him. New agency is not able to get him work like YRF used to. He never had an empty date calendar with them like he does now. There is a reason why he is looking for opportunities abroad as he is not getting anything substantial here. The only confirmed movie shoot for him is Simmba reprise in Singham returns. He's not privileged like others and is hustling to sustain his career. Hope it pays off for him.

Also, KJo has lost his mojo. His directorial prowess has diminished after MNIK. I don't think his NRI-appealing melodrama will work with the masses.

I guess its a catch-22 for Ranveer. The Rohit Shetty cop universe is a Dharma production - so he has to do the roles Daddy KJo gives. Its a shame because he is talented and could have really been a diverse actor.

I do feel sorry for him because 83 and Jayeshbhai Jordaar which were different roles tanked.

You know, part of the problem is Ranveer and his persona. There is a value to being wacky as a means to get attention. But he's made being zany such a big part of his personality that it overshadows his talent. It makes it easy for people to pigeonhole him. Also, the more you play into your personality, the less people think of your talent.

Lady Gaga/Stefani Germanotta has used wackiness successfully in her career. Stefani is classically trained from Tish, one of the most elite music schools in the nation. But her debut self-titled album tanked. Realizing she needed to stand out she reinvented herself as Lady Gaga - an over-the-top, outrageous pop personality and became a chart-topper. In this era, many people thought she was an untalented hack who was famous only for her outfits.

But Lady Gaga was careful not to let her outfits overshadow her talent. She did the right collaborations and chose the right performances. A Jazz collaboration with Tony Bennet, the national anthem at the Superbowl, and a pulpy campy Ryan Murphy show - she established herself as a talent to reckon with.

Ranveer was very straightforward and down to earth around his debut. And honestly, he didn't need to create a persona because everyone saw him as a talent to reckon with. It did help him rise to mercurial popularity. But after that he hasn't been able make the right choices so that his talent shines brighter than his persona.

I think he is being more careful about the choices he makes after the year he had, he isnt just signing anything for the sake of just having work, he wants to sign films that will actually work


And he has changed quite alot, he isnt seen as much as he used to, he doesn't interact with the paps as much, he posts much less on social media. And the biggest difference has been his outfits, whenever he has been seen he is wearing normal clothes with quiet colours.


This was him today

I think ranveer has realised that this persona has started to become a problem, like I said in my previous post, ranveer has changed after the year he had, he has become more quiet and he doesn't wear the wacky outfits he used to wear all the time


Even when he recently went to London for the premiere luague he just wore normal suits and didn't do anything over the top, and recently when he went to karan deols wedding he wore a plain white suit and was chilling with deepika and his family at the venue, nothing over the top.
