Chef Ranveer Brar, who is gradually transitioning into acting, narrated a story about working with Kareena Kapoor in Hansal Mehta’s new film. He was in awe of Kareena, and her natural ability to transform into her character the moment ‘action’ was called on set.

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Ranveer said that Kareena comes from a family that lives and breathes cinema, and it shows. He said that Kareena is a ‘gentle’ person, but to get the correct performance out of him, she did something on set that made him more scared that he has ever been before.

He said, “There was a scene in which she had to slap me. She’s a very gentle woman, she was like, ‘No, Ranveer, I can’t slap you for real’. Even Hansal sir was clear about no real slaps. And so we tried three or four cheat shots. We tried it four times, but it wasn’t working. I had to look scared at that point of time of her, and she realised she wasn’t scary enough, and I wasn’t reacting to it. I will not say what she did, but she did something… I was sh*t scared of her in that split second. If they got a close-up of my face, you’ll see that I’ve never been that scared of anybody in my entire life.”

Ranveer refused to divulge the tactic Kareena used in that moment, but he didn’t stop gushing about her. He said, “She’s very well prepared, very well prepared. She could immediately spot even the most minor changes to the script. She has that magic, she can switch into her character in a split second.”

Ranveer and Kareena will be seen together in the murder mystery tentatively titled The Buckingham Murders. While this is Kareena’s first time working with Hansal, Ranveer worked with the filmmaker on a segment in Modern Love Mumbai, in which he starred alongside Pratik Gandhi.
