Although actor Ranbir Kapoor is perhaps among the most popular actors of modern-day Bollywood, filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani has stated that he remained exceptionally low-key while filming for the movie 'Sanju.' In a recent interview, Hirani mentioned that there were almost no aides with Ranbir at the film's shooting sets and the filmmakers didn't even know who his manager was.

Hirani Recalls Ranbir's Down-To-Earth Nature

Regarding his association with Ranbir during the production of the film Sanju, Rajkumar Hirani stated that Ranbir never had an aura of a superstar. Contrary to most famous personalities who are always accompanied by big entourage, Ranbir kept everything simple and concentrated only on his performance.

Hirani remembers that the actor would come to set, do his part of acting and engage himself in normal conversation with other people on set.

'We Didn't Know Who His Manager Was'

What was truly shocking about Hirani's disclosure is that the Sanju crew was unaware of the name of Ranbir Kapoor's manager during the shooting period of the movie. As per Hirani's own words, the actor did not have much crew around him, unlike other actors who have huge teams accompanying them due to their status in the industry.

These statements from the director have since become viral as fans appreciate the humble nature of the actor despite his popularity.

Ranbir's Dedication Was Key To Sanju's Success

"Sanju," which is inspired from the life of actor Sanjay Dutt, turned out to be one of the highest-grossing movies of 2018 and was critically lauded for the impressive performance of Ranbir Kapoor. Ranbir Kapoor underwent an immense change in terms of his physical and psychological appearance to represent the various stages in the life of Sanjay Dutt.

It can be said that the dedication and professionalism of Ranbir Kapoor were one of the main reasons behind the movie's success.

Fans Praise The Actor's Simplicity

As per Hirani's statement, people using social media have hailed Ranbir Kapoor for his humility while working. Many fans have regarded him as one of the most down-to-earth actors in Bollywood because he gives preference to his profession over fame.

The confession made by Hirani has once again brought to light the other side of Ranbir Kapoor which is not usually shown to people.
