Ranbir Kapoor will do complete justice to lord Rama's role, says Gurmeet Choudhary
A
ctor Gurmeet Choudhary, who gained the spotlight by playing Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar’s “Ramayan”, has expressed his confidence in Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor’s ability to excel in the same role in Nitesh Tiwary’s “Ramayana” alongside Sai Pallavi.
Speaking about Ranbir Kapoor, he said: “Ranbir is an exceptional actor who brings every role to life. Audiences loved me as Ram because they saw the essence of Ram in me, and I am confident that Ranbir will also do complete justice to this role.”
Gurmeet also reflected on playing the role in his early days.
“When I worked on Ramayan, I was just 23 years old. The show was produced by Ramanand Sagar, who also created the iconic Ramayan featuring Arun Govil sir. Before that, I was completely unknown to the audience and had never appeared on screen,” Gurmeet said.
He added: “That’s exactly what Ramanand Sagar believed in—when portraying a divine figure, the actor should have no prior public image or background, allowing viewers to connect with the character devotionally.”
Gurmeet was recently in “Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein” Season 2 for which he lost 10 kilos for his look. To embody the intense and complex character, Gurmeet underwent rigorous preparation.
Speaking about the experience, Gurmeet shared, “Portraying Guru was both challenging and exhilarating. My director, Siddharth Sengupta, had a clear vision for the character, which required me to prepare extensively.
“I attended multiple acting workshops, cut my long hair short, and followed a strict diet to get lean. To achieve the desired look, I went to Bandra daily for sprinting, eventually losing 10kg.”
“Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein” is a romantic crime thriller television series on Netflix created and directed by Sidharth Sengupta. The series also stars Shweta Tripathi and Anchal Singh in the lead roles along with Saurabh Shukla, Surya Sharma, Arunoday Singh and Brijendra Kala playing supporting roles
The season also sees the entry of Gurmeet Choudhary who is Purva’s friend and vows to bring her back home safely. It’s a deadly game of survival, and with Gurmeet Choudhary’s powerful entry this season, the stakes only get higher.
