Karan Johar on similarity between Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh, praises RK’s professionalism: ‘He has no PR, no manager’
Karan Johar showered praises on actor Ranbir Kapoor for his down-to-earth nature and professionalism. He also spoke about how he is similar to Ranveer Singh and praised their talent.

Director-producer Karan Johar showered praises on actor Ranbir Kapoor for his down-to-earth nature and professionalism. Karan, who directed Ranbir in the 2016 film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, highlighted how Ranbir handles his own schedule without the assistance of a manager or a PR team.
Speaking to Mid-Day, Karan Johar revealed, “He (Ranbir) does one film at a time, he handles his own dates. There is no PR, there is no manager, there is nobody around him. He is on his own. You ask him for dates, he opens his phone, he has all his own dates, he knows exactly which plans he’s doing, he knows his schedule, he knows his days off, he knows his holidays.”
When asked about the difference between Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh, whom he recently directed in the hit film Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, Karan emphasised that the one common factor between the two actors is their immense ‘talent.’ He then praised Ranbir’s professionalism and easy-going nature. “Ranbir is that guy who will study so hard but come across to school and feel like ‘I don’t know what you guys are talking about, it is an easy breezy day’. He can’t pretend because he is too true to what he is. He is the most relaxed person, he’s the most patient human being, you can keep him waiting for 14 hours on a set and he won’t say a thing,” he said.
Karan Johar returned to directing a full-fledged feature film after a seven-year hiatus with Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, which was a massive hit the box office. He had directed Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (2016) before returning to the director’s chair with RRKPK. Ranbir Kapoor, on the other hand, is gearing up for his next project, Animal, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga of Kabir Singh fame. The film also features Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna and Tripti Dimri in pivotal roles and is expected to release in December.
