When Yash revealed he didn’t Initially like Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor
Kannada star Yash, widely admired as a pan-Indian icon, once shared his candid thoughts on Bollywood actors Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh, critiquing aspects of their performances in an interview from 2018. Known for his down-to-earth personality, Yash did not shy away from expressing his opinions on their acting, highlighting both praise and areas where he felt their work could improve.
In this interview with ETV Bharat, Yash reflected on Ranveer Singh’s career. Initially, he admitted that he was not particularly impressed with Ranveer’s early films. However, his perception shifted when Ranveer starred in Bajirao Mastani, a project directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, which became a major success. Yash explained that he began to appreciate Ranveer’s work from this movie onwards. He also praised Ranveer’s portrayal in Padmaavat, calling it “amazing” and suggesting that his acting had grown significantly with these roles.
Yash then discussed Ranbir Kapoor, sharing that he had watched several of Ranbir’s films, including Sanju. While he acknowledged Ranbir’s talent and appreciated his work in Sanju, he also noted that he felt Ranbir appeared somewhat “distracted” in some of his other performances. Despite this critique, Yash recognized Ranbir’s abilities, especially highlighting his skills in Sanju.
When it comes to Bollywood, Yash holds a deep admiration for some of its legendary actors, including Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan, whom he considers his all-time favorites. These Bollywood icons, according to Yash, have consistently delivered memorable performances and have left a lasting impact on audiences across generations.
On the professional front, Yash is currently preparing for two major projects, Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown Ups and Ramayan. His journey in the industry has been marked not only by his own rise as a top actor but also by his genuine and respectful relationships with his colleagues, including those in Bollywood.
