He has proved himself to be the king of the box office with thunderous results in just 4 months. Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that earlier this month, Aditya Chopra and Ranveer Singh had a closed-door meeting. "Ranveer Singh's success felt personal to Aditya Chopra, as he is the one who launched him and laid the foundation to excel in the Hindi Film Industry. The two met at YRF last to last Friday, and in a closed-door meeting, hugged and ironed out all their differences as well. It was a rather long discussion between the two, ranging from their future plans to the intent of collaboration, and of course, the success of Dhurandhar," a source told Bollywood Hungama. The source also informed that Aditya Chopra and Ranveer Singh have also discussed a probable collaboration. "Ranveer and Adi are keen to collaborate on a big scale feature film.

SCOOP: Ranveer Singh buys the rights for The Immortal of Meluha trilogy for Rs. 40 crores from Amish Tripathi After the success of the Dhurandhar franchise, Ranveer Singh has become the new King of the Indian Film Industry. With back-to-back all-time grossers under his kitty, the young actor has officially secured the tag of a superstar, and all eyes are now on his next move. While several speculations on the financials of Pralay continue to grab chatters in the industry circles, Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that Ranveer Singh has quietly acquired the rights for The Immortals of Meluha.   "Ranveer Singh was to lead Immortals of Meluha for Sanjay Leela Bhansali. However, the project never materialised. But the actor was always fascinated by the world, and had the dream of playing Lord Shiva in the spectacle. The minute rights of Immortal of Meluha expired on Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Ranveer went ahead and procured it under his own banner - Maa Kasam Films," a source told Bollywood Hungama. The source also informs that the sum splurged by Ranveer Singh to bag the rights is the highest ever for a novel. "Ranveer has bagged the Immortal of Meluha trilogy for a humongous sum of Rs. 40 crores. It's a passion project for him, and he has put it under development. While 5 years back, he relied on SLB to bring this to reality, today, he is in a position of power to pick the director for this. He is committed to bringing the Meluha trilogy to the spectacle.

Ranveer Singh starrer Pralay back on track? Insider says zombie thriller begins shooting in August 2026 Ranveer Singh starrer upcoming film Pralay continues to generate strong buzz, especially after recent speculation suggested the project had run into difficulties. However, fresh developments indicate that the much-talked-about zombie thriller remains firmly on schedule, with shooting expected to begin in August 2026. The actor, who is coming off the successful run of the Dhurandhar franchise, had earlier committed to filmmaker Jai Mehta’s next directorial venture. In recent weeks, reports claimed that the film was facing a roadblock due to alleged creative differences between Ranveer Singh and the director. Those rumours have now been denied by a source associated with the production. An insider connected to the project stated, “Reports suggesting any uncertainty around Pralay are completely baseless. Ranveer and Jai have been in continuous discussions and have firmly locked the script. The project has already moved into pre-production, with the entire team actively gearing up to create a never-before-witnessed gigantic spectacle out of Indian cinema. As it stands, Pralay is on track to go on floors by August 2026. ”If the latest update is accurate, the film has now entered an important pre-production phase, which likely includes location scouting, concept design, action planning, VFX preparation, and casting formalities. Pralay is being described as a large-scale pos... #Singh #August #Ranveer_Singh #Ranveer #Singh_starrer #Pralay_back #Pralay #zombie_thriller #starrer_Pralay #starrer_upcoming

Gaurav Gera praises Ranveer Singh's discipline and on-set involvement in Dhurandhar: The Revenge Actor Gaurav Gera has spoken about his experience of working with Ranveer Singh in Dhurandhar: The Revenge, highlighting the latter’s approach to performance and presence on set. In a recent interaction with India Today, Gera described Ranveer as someone deeply invested in his work. “Ranveer is a superstar for a reason, he is so good at what he does. He’s extremely organised and fully immersed in the character. He takes a keen interest,” he said, pointing to the actor’s focused preparation. He also spoke about Ranveer’s involvement during scenes, even when he wasn’t required to be actively present. “He didn’t have to be there for cues in my scenes, which often happens on shoots. But he stayed back and remained present throughout. That’s just how he is—completely involved with the film,” Gera added. Recalling a lighter moment, Gera mentioned their earlier ‘Chutki-shopkeeper’ act that recently resurfaced online amid the film’s buzz. He shared that Ranveer instantly recognised him on set. “He tapped my shoulder and said, ‘How are you, Chutki?’ I was surprised because I had a beard and looked quite different, but he still remembered,” he said. Gera also noted a shift in Ranveer’s on-screen approach over time, especially while playing Hamza in the film. “He’s grown a lot as an actor. There’s a certain calmness in his performance here, which is very different from how people u... #Singh #Gaurav #Dhurandhar #Ranveer_Singh #Ranveer #Revenge #Singh_discipline #Gaurav_Gera #Revenge_Actor #Actor_Gaurav

Ranveer Singh's new visual grammar screams supremacy: the man who shocked Bollywood with flamboyance now rules it with finesse There was a time when Ranveer Singh dressed as if fashion itself were a live performance. He wore the impossible, the theatrical and the outrageous with a kind of joy that very few male stars in Hindi cinema have ever possessed. His style was not merely loud; it was disruptive. It challenged the safe, repetitive masculinity that Bollywood men have long hidden behind. And in 2022, when he did the now-iconic PAPER magazine nude shoot, he took that defiance to its most extreme form, turning his own body into a statement of confidence, provocation and total fearlessness. Now, in the post-Dhurandhar phase, the visual grammar has changed. The harem pants, exaggerated silhouettes and riotous prints have made way for sharply cut suits, bandhgalas and tailored eveningwear. Recent public appearances have underlined that shift, with Ranveer stepping out in a black bandhgala and embracing a visibly more controlled, understated public image. Even commentary around him has begun to note that his clothes, media presence and overall demeanour have evolved in this phase. And that is exactly why this moment is so fascinating. Because this is not a story of a star becoming boring. It is the story of a star becoming precise. Ranveer Singh’s earlier flamboyance was never accidental. It built a myth. It told the world that here was an actor who would not enter t... #Singh #Ranveer_Singh #Ranveer #Hindi_cinema #live_performance #screams_supremacy #shocked_Bollywood #Singh_dressed #grammar_screams #visual_grammar

EXCLUSIVE: Mukesh Chhabra ADMITS he and Aditya Dhar were initially unsure about casting Sara Arjun opposite Ranveer Singh; says, “She matched the brief exactly” The casting of Sara Arjun opposite Ranveer Singh in Dhurandhar sparked widespread conversation after the trailer release, especially around the noticeable age gap between the two actors. Now, casting director Mukesh Chhabra has revealed that he and director Aditya Dhar were initially unsure about finalising her for the role. Speaking exclusively with Bollywood Hungama, Chhabra explained that the team had always planned to cast a completely fresh face for the character rather than a familiar actress. He said, “From the beginning, Aditya and I were very clear that we needed a face that looked like she belonged to that world. There should be no baggage. A new face works better. If we had cast someone who had already done two films, the connection would not feel right because the boy is meeting her there for the first time. ”He added, “Sara had done a few films as a child actor but as a full-fledged heroine in a Bollywood film she had never done that before. The idea was to cast the character, not think of it as casting a typical lead. ” Over 1,000 auditions were conducted before shortlisting Sara Arjun Chhabra revealed that the team conducted an extensive audition process that lasted nearly a year before narrowing down the options. “We were very clear that if we are entering that world, the audience should feel su... #Aditya_Dhar #Ranveer_Singh #Ranveer #Sara_Arjun #Mukesh_Chhabra #opposite_Ranveer #Chhabra_ADMITS #Dhurandhar_sparked #Arjun_opposite #initially_unsure

Ranveer Singh starrer Pralay is not an adaptation, reveals Hansal Mehta Filmmaker Hansal Mehta has opened up about his upcoming project Pralay, starring Ranveer Singh. The film, which has been generating considerable curiosity, is set to explore a large-scale post-apocalyptic world—an idea that, according to Mehta, has been in development for quite some time. Speaking about the origins of the project to The Hollywood Reporter, Mehta revealed that the concept was initially developed by filmmaker Jai Mehta, who had been working on it independently before Ranveer Singh came on board. "Jai had been working on this idea for a long time. " He further explained how the collaboration took shape once Ranveer expressed interest in the concept, "When Ranveer saw his work, he reached out to him and then Jai pitched it to him. Once Ranveer said he liked the idea, we invested in developing it-helping Jai create the world he wants to present in the film. "Detailing the scale and ambition of Pralay, Mehta described it as a genre-defining project for Indian cinema. “Its a post-apocalyptic world that hasnt been attempted before at this scale in India. Development is not just about writing. It also includes ideas-how you shape them, how you visualise them, and how you eventually sell them to a third party, to a star or a studio. We've invested in building those ideas,” he further told the portal. Addressing speculation about the film being inspired by existing literary works, Mehta firml... #Ranveer_Singh #Ranveer #Mehta #Hansal_Mehta #starring_Ranveer #reveals_Hansal #Filmmaker_Hansal #Hansal #Singh_starrer #Mehta_Filmmaker

Ranveer Singh to submit unconditional apology affidavit in Kantara mimicry controversy; next hearing on April 10: Report Actor Ranveer Singh is set to submit an affidavit offering an unconditional apology in connection with the controversy surrounding his mimicry of a scene from Kantara at the closing ceremony of the International Film Festival of India 2025. According to a report by NDTV, the affidavit will be filed before the court on April 10, 2026, when the matter is scheduled to be heard next. As part of the apology process, the actor is also expected to personally visit the Chamundi Temple in Mysuru. The development follows objections raised by the complainant’s counsel, who argued that Ranveer had only issued a written apology on social media earlier and had not expressed regret verbally before the court. During the recent proceedings, the complainant’s lawyer Prashant Methal stated that the earlier apology appeared to be formal rather than sincere. Responding to this, Ranveer Singh’s legal team informed the court that the actor was genuinely hurt by the situation and would soon submit a written apology in the form of an affidavit. The controversy dates back to the closing ceremony of IFFI in Goa, where Ranveer spoke about watching Kantara: Chapter 1 and praised filmmaker-actor Rishab Shetty for his performance. During the interaction, Ranveer imitated the Daiva possession sequence from the film and referred to the figure as a “female ghost. ” Although the imitatio... #Film_Festival #Ranveer_Singh #Ranveer #International_Film #Report_Actor #unconditional_apology #Kantara_mimicry #affidavit_offering #submit_unconditional #mimicry_controversy

Inside the Explosive Don 3 meet: What really went down behind closed doors as Ritesh Sidhwani-Farhan Akhtar locked horns with Ranveer over Rs. 40 crores In August 2023, Don 3 was officially announced by Excel Entertainment, with Ranveer Singh unveiled as the new face of the iconic franchise. A slick announcement video followed, generating massive excitement. The action spectacle was slated to go on floors in 2026. However, some time ago, it came to light that Ranveer Singh had exited the project, triggering intense chatter within industry circles. Bollywood Hungama has now learned that the fallout has led to two closed-door meetings held under the aegis of the Producers Guild of India (GUILD), involving some of the most powerful names in the business. The first meeting took place nearly a week before the latest developments and was conducted under the banner of the Producers Guild of India. Senior producers, including Sajid Nadiadwala, were present. This initial discussion focused on understanding the circumstances surrounding Ranveer Singh’s exit and the broader implications for producers when a film collapses at an advanced pre-production stage. The matter escalated further on Saturday, February 7, when a second, more detailed meeting was held at Lands End, again under the aegis of the Producers Guild of India. Present at this meeting were Aamir Khan, Siddharth Roy Kapur, Ramesh Taurani and Kumar Taurani, among other key industry stakeholders.
