One-film-old Ranveer Singh perhaps fancies himself to be a David, what with mimicking the Goliaths of the industry. At an event to launch ‘Lootera’, co-starring Sonakshi Sinha, the bratty actor took on two of the biggest Khans in the industry, Aamir and Salman, and ensured he had the media lapping up every moment of his act. It started with Ranveer sporting a look from the film. In his high-waisted pants, he looked straight out of a 50s film. The actor however had a different era in mind.
“Now on, I will only wear my pants over my tummy, like Aamir Khan,” he said. It did not stop at that. When someone from media requested him to say something about Sonakshi, Ranveer said that he first saw the trailer of ‘Dabangg’ on Youtube and immediately rattled off the famous dialogue, “Thappad se dar nahi lagta sahab, pyaar se dar lagta hai”.
He then proceeded to mimic Salman’s signature strut, using up all of the stage or the next few minutes. All Sonakshi could do was turn away in embarrassment. Producers and his director wisely didn’t allow him to talk much after that.
