Post Dutt biopic, Hirani wants to work with Ranbir again

Director Rajkumar Hirani, who has for the first time collaborated with Ranbir Kapoor for their upcoming film, a biopic on actor Sanjay Dutt, is impressed by his acting chops and wants to work with him again.

Ranbir entered Bollywood in 2007 with "Saawariya", which failed at the box office. However, he cemented his position in the film industry with "Wake Up Sid", "Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year", "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahaani", "Rajneeti", "Rockstar" and "Barfi".

These were followed by a series of flop movies like "Bombay Velvet", "Besharam" and "Roy". The 35-year-old bounced back with "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" in 2016 but his last theatrical release "Jagga Jassos" could not create any magic at the ticket window.

Now, all eyes are set on his upcoming film in which he plays the role of Dutt.

Asked if the Dutt biopic will mark the return of Ranbir as a superstar, Hirani said,""He was always there, he never went away. He is a fantastic actor. I Ioved working with him. I would like to work with him again."
"We are launching it on April 24 in the morning and it will be played at IPL."
