Actor Ranbir Kapoor says that had Pakistani actor Fawad Khan not “opened the door” by playing a homosexual character in ‘Kapoor & Sons’, he would have perhaps turned down an offer to play a gay on screen. But now the ‘Barfi!’ star is receptive to the idea.
\nThe actor opened up about his professional as well as personal life in an interview confirmed that he is open for such kind of a role and has no objection.<\/p>\n
Ranbir lauds his contemporaries for taking up risky roles — be it Alia Bhatt in ‘Udta Punjab’ and Fawad in ‘Kapoor & Sons’.
\nAsked if he would play a homosexual on camera, Ranbir said: “Sure, but now it’s already been done. Now Fawad has opened the door and it’s easy for us to walk through it. But earlier… I must honestly say I might have turned it down.”
\nHe is also willing to play a second lead in a movie, but conditions apply. He said: “Suppose tomorrow Rajkumar Hirani offers me the part of Circuit to the new Munnabhai. I would play it and try my best to do it justice.”<\/p>\n
Ranbir is currently living with his grandmother Krishna here and training for Ayan Mukerji’s ‘Dragon’. He awaits Karan Johar’s ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, and also has Anurag Basu’s long-gestating ‘Jagga Jasoos’ lined up. In February, after ‘Dragon’, he hopes to start shooting for Rajkumar Hirani’s next, a biopic of actor Sanjay Dutt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
