Amidst the clamour for more austerity and less extravagance from the A-listers, one Bollywood superstar has emerged as the epitome of self-discipline.
And that is Ranbir Kapoor who is rapidly being branded the no-frills superstar of Bollywood.
“He makes no demands on the producers…zero frills. Ranbir brings his own dabba to the sets for lunch. No demands of any kind . He arrives on the set without a team, completes his work and drives off,” Sanjay Leela Bhansali informs me.
The other major contemporary actor who has acquired a no-tantrums-no-frills reputation is Kartik Aaryan.
“He is one of the most disciplined actors I’ve worked with. No fuss, no frills, he comes on the sets. He arrives on the dot for the shooting and gives all of himself to his work. No distractions, no guests on the sets,” says Kabir Khan who directed Kartik in Chandu Champion.
Anurag Basu echoes the above sentiments.
From the previous generation of superstars, only Akshay Kumar has the same no-demands-no-trantrums reputation.
