MUMBAI: Ranveer and Deepika’s sizzling chemistry and performances in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s modern adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet was one of 2013’s biggest hits. Awards committees have been kind to Ram Leela, and its cast has won a number of awards, including Filmfare and Big Screen Awards for their roles in the movie. Ranveer Singh however, finds these awards debatable.
The actor, who has been attending numerous award functions of late, says that sometimes he is not so sure about them.
“Sometimes I find awards questionable. At times I get surprised looking at the winners’ list… at times it glares out to me as well, but it’s all subjective. For me, awards mean live performance and I love live performances,” Ranveer told IANS.
The star was referring to the fact that while Ram Leela has fared well this awards season, his other offering Lootera was snubbed by committees. Like his co-star Sonakshi Sinha, he too is disappointed that the period love saga, based on O. Henry’s 1907 short story The Last Leaf, was not nominated despite receiving critical acclaim.
“It is very disappointing that the technical team of Lootera didn’t get their due credit. Looterais technically one of the superior films of Hindi cinema,” he said.
“I would rate Lootera higher than Ram Leela, as Ram Leela was easier for me to do, whileLootera was tougher. I am proud of Lootera. It’s a timeless film. It’s sad that Lootera went unnoticed by many.”
After the success of Ram Leela, Ranveer will next be seen in Gunday, and is currently busy promoting the action thriller. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, the drama, set in 1970s Kolkata, will see Ranveer teaming up with Arjun Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra
