Top Ranveer Singh Performances
No doubt, his infectious energy, his commitment to nailing the character's personality through mannerisms and accents gives him an incentive, it also sparks debate among his ardent fans over his best performances. Here’s a look at the top Ranveer Singh performances we all love and why after Dhurandhar, Lootera is his second-best performance:
Dhurandhar
Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar needs no introduction. The film has grossed the highest in box-office revenue breaking all records and setting a new bar for the upcoming films like Ramayana to break. As Hamza Ali Mazari aka Jaskirat Singh Rangi, Ranveer plays the undercover Indian spy in Pakistan. The high-octane action sequences come easy to Ranveer who effortlessly performs them keeping the audiences entertained with his deliveries.
Lootera
A retelling of O. Henry's The Last Leaf, Ranveer plays a thief. Unlike his highly energetic performances, Singh stripes his flamboyance and physical intensity on screen for nuance. He portrays Varun with emotional depth and with brooding resonance.
Padmaavat
As Alauddin Khilji in the highly controversial film Padmaavat, Ranveer embraces every aspect of the cruel Sultan. His lust and ambition, too. His fierce intensity domanites the screen and makes the audiences hate the character intensely.
Bajirao Mastaani
Singh's portrayal is both commanding and tender, in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Masaatani, despite critics arguing about the inaccuracies in portraying the life of Peshwa Bajirao. The actor captures the weight of history while making the warrior profoundly human.
Gully Boy
One of the most electrifying performances in his portfolio, Ranveer perfectly portrays Murad's grit, vulnerability and his reality as a street-rapper. Even extending his acting chops to train as a rapper, that highlights the extent to his commitment to the role.
Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela
In Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela, Ranveer as Ram is incandescent. His portrayal of Ram is ferocious, impulsive, and dripping with raw emotion.
