Motwane: Ranveer Singh's Best Performance Yet to Come

Renowned filmmaker Vikramaditya Motwane has heaped praise on actor Ranveer Singh, describing him as a powerhouse of talent whose finest work is still ahead of him. This comes amidst significant buzz for Singh's upcoming role in the spy action film 'Dhurandhar', directed by Aditya Dhar.

Motwane's High Praise for a 'Volcano' of Talent

In a recent conversation with News18, Motwane shared his profound admiration for Ranveer Singh's dedication and latent potential. The director, who worked with Singh on the critically acclaimed 2013 period romance 'Lootera', used a powerful metaphor to describe the actor.

"I always end up feeling that there’s a real volcano inside him that’s going to erupt at some point in time," Motwane stated. He emphasized that with the right guidance, audiences are yet to witness the full force of Singh's capabilities. "You’re just waiting for those moments to see it, with the right director guiding him. I think it will come. He is still young," he added.

Recalling the Magic of 'Lootera' and Looking Ahead

Motwane reflected on extracting a strikingly subtle and moving performance from Ranveer Singh in 'Lootera', a film celebrated for its stunning visuals and nuanced emotions. He highlighted Singh's immersive process, noting that the actor gives "100, 1,000%" to every role.

Discussing the anticipation around Singh's bold turn in 'Dhurandhar', Motwane expressed his belief that the industry has only scratched the surface. "I honestly love Ranveer, but I feel that we still haven’t seen so much of what he’s really capable of. I think he is capable of so much more, and I really believe that his best is yet to come," the filmmaker remarked.
