00:00I want to tell you first about season 2 or not, because it's very interesting, people are loving it.
00:09Season 2 has a lot of fun, Diwali has a lot of fun and has a lot of fun.
00:16He has seen season 1 and he is ready and he is ready and he is ready and he is ready.
00:25Diwali is great because season 2 is coming, keep it ready and keep it in season 1.
00:34Also sir, this is an interesting concept, it has a blend of comedy, drama, crime and everything.
00:41We have seen a lot of crime dramas before, but do you think comedy that is the main ingredient of the show that is making it so popular?
00:53I don't know what is added, it's the palette on which it is served.
00:59It's not that you sprinkle it.
01:01So, the mood of the novel is complete and comedy is central and absurdity is central.
01:08So, that's the central emotion I think we are dealing with.
01:12I think it is inherent in the story, in the situations.
01:21The humour is not forced.
01:24But the mood of the genre is like that, they are dressing, they are dressing, dressing, everything is extra.
01:32They have a knowledge for someone, and they do understand it, right?
01:36That is the part and parcel of the package.
01:42Yeah, I think it's true. As a viewer as a viewer, the dark humor, the madness of the characters, is for me, definitely.
01:52Sir, we have seen a lot of Bahubali culture in U.P.N.P.A.
01:56The series also set on it. But how does this Bahubali culture set apart from all the other series that you've already seen?
02:04Because when we watch a crime drama, they all somehow look the same.
02:09So, in this Bahubali culture, what does it look like in this Bahubali culture?
02:13I think the biggest USP is that, you are right, this genre is very successful.
02:22But it's a little sensitive approach to that.
02:31The human interactions in crime drama, in family drama, the exploration is not in broad strokes, it is in finer strokes.
02:44You know, slightly nuanced.
02:46If I tell you about the performance, then the rest of the crime drama, in Bahubali genre, there are a lot of Bahubali.
03:01Very nice.
03:02That was very big.
03:03Very nice.
03:04Did you get big?
03:05No, I didn't try that.
03:06So, this is a very powerful story.
03:08It is a very powerful genre.
03:13This is Bahubali genre.
03:14This is Bahubali, you should be scared.
03:16We have all these characters.
03:18We have all these Bahubali characters.
03:20But we have all these people.
03:22We have all these people.
03:23We have all these young people.
03:24They are aware of real problems.
03:26I mean, they are killing them.
03:27They are killing them, people.
03:28The people that they are killing them, they are not killing them.
03:31They are on the level of these thoughts.
03:32They have to kill them, they have to kill them, they have to kill them, they have to kill them, they have to kill them.
03:36It's a pooler or not.
03:38Bahubali is a business, they are running.
03:40They are not on their own.
03:41And, just as I say, life is stranger than fiction.
03:46When we are researching the show group and we have seen the actual court of Bahubali and have seen the place in Bahubali,
03:54they live in a very common way and they are not giving any order.
03:59They are running out of order, they are running out of order, they are running out of order, they are running out of order.
04:06Another thing, Bahubali is not only in the business of Bahubali.
04:14In this world, in this world, in this society, all of us are sitting in a Bahubali,
04:22who is just sitting outside.
04:24It is not just a chance to get out of order.
04:26Yes, he is running out of order to get out of order.
04:29So, we are trying to represent it.
04:32And in that, the absurdities and poverty have to be at centre.
04:36So, you know what, I would like to say that this show has like a spectacular, phenomenal staff has.
04:43You have this question, that you were working with Saurabh and also called it textbook or faculty.
04:48How is it working with him?
04:50Also, how is it working with phenomenal actors?
04:52Is it like them?
04:53Is it easy or difficult?
04:54Because they know the game so well.
04:56You know, for me, Saurabh being there, Seema Ji being there, Sai, Apna Tanishtha, Sushant.
05:10So, all these names, you know, get you more excited.
05:14So, I mean, as it is, my part was very good in the script.
05:17The script was very good and in the good script, my part was very good.
05:21The other characters were being played by such amazing actors.
05:25So, I mean, for me, it was, tell me when to start.
05:30So, it was like that.
05:32No, Ari, it's a great thing to do.
05:36When you're a good actor in front of you,
05:38you have a learning experience.
05:40That's obvious.
05:41When you're a mature and senior actors, you learn from them.
05:45But it's a give-and-take in the time of performance.
05:48When you're a good actor in front of you,
05:49it's a good actor in front of you.
05:51So, when you pack up in the morning or in the morning,
05:55you're very happy and satisfied.
06:00In fact, I would like to add,
06:02Saurabh's name, Seema Ji, Vinit Bhai,
06:06Govind Bhai,
06:08Govind Bhai,
06:09Govind Bhai,
06:10Govind Bhai,
06:11Shiba, Shiba Chaddha.
06:13Is it a whole world?
06:14Yeah, yeah.
06:15In fact,
06:16I had told you,
06:17when I was born,
06:19I think we had gone for some interview.
06:21And the first thing is that,
06:22this series star is a casting agent.
06:25Casting director.
06:27So, it's true.
06:28Because the cast is really amazing.
06:30It's like a shahit hali.
06:32This is a shahit hali for actors.
06:34And again to mention,
06:37Kranti Pradha,
06:38Alok Parde,
06:40Yogi Navikaran Hussain,
06:43Manshangar,
06:44those actors,
06:45who are working with a lot of time,
06:47but they don't have so much presentation
06:49and great work.
06:50They are all very good.
06:51They are all very good.
06:52They are all very good.
06:54Priti Chauhan.
06:54Priti Chauhan.
06:55Priti Chauhan.
06:56Priti Chauhan.
06:57There are so many good actors.
06:59But is it easy to work with an original actor
07:01or is it difficult?
07:02Because all of them are just so cool.
07:04As a co-actor,
07:06it's a gift.
07:07Yeah.
07:08It makes your job so much more fun,
07:12so much better
07:14as the work is so much better.
07:16Only once in a while
07:17if you have someone who is a good actor,
07:20but off-camera is not good,
07:24then it becomes painful.
07:25But none of that happened.
07:26We were lucky to have none of those people.
07:29So, it was all people who were there for the work
07:32and there for good work.
07:33So, was it like a party on set?
07:35No, no. Party, it was a more focused place
07:38because that comes from the director.
07:40It was a tough shoot.
07:41That comes from the director,
07:43whether it's a party
07:44or whether it's more serious work.
07:46So, you are trying to say
07:47I didn't get your part.
07:47Yes, that's true.
07:48Yeah.
07:49Spoil sport.
07:50Spoil sport.
07:51Yeah, we were not allowed to have fun.
07:53So, the director is difficult or tough?
07:55Is that what you are saying?
07:56He is tough.
07:56I didn't say that.
07:57I didn't say that.
07:59He is very tough.
08:00Yeah, he is very tough.
08:02He is a boxer.
08:03He is a boxer.
08:08I am going to be done now.
08:09He is a boxer.
08:11No, definitely.
08:12No, so, just to answer that.
08:15I think for any, especially a filmmaking medium
08:18which is a collaboration of so many artists,
08:21it's only a pleasure to have amazing creators around you.
08:26So, there is no second thought or second question
08:28but it's not the same thing.
08:30It's not the same thing.
08:31It's not the same thing.
08:33So, I have three questions from movies and TV.
08:37One thing that I have seen in my comment is
08:39is crime.
08:40It's my favourite genre.
08:42Yeah.
08:42Yeah.
08:43It's done.
08:43It's not the same thing.
08:45It's the same thing.
08:47Like all other actors.
08:49Criminal.
08:50No tag.
08:51No tag.
08:52No tag.
08:53No tag.
08:53No tag.
08:54No tag.
08:55No tag.
08:56I'll give background music behind.
08:57Criminal.
08:58Background music is not the same.
09:00Our show is Indian Ocean.
09:03Indian Ocean.
09:04Not many people know that
09:05but they like the music
09:07but I think it's not enough out there
09:09the information that the music on
09:11Vindya Ke Bohobali is done by Indian Ocean.
09:14So, you know, they are legends themselves.
09:17It really lifts up the whole series definitely.
09:19I have seen it in the last scene
09:22and in the last scene.
09:23It's really good.
09:24It's really good.
09:25Yeah.
09:25So, special mention of Indian Ocean.
09:28Yeah.
09:29So anyway, so crime,
09:30it's just going to happen.
09:32I guess personality is that
09:33intense role, intense role, intense role.
09:35Intense role,
09:36where we can write stories
09:38in which we will be.
09:40We will be more intense roles
09:41in crime drama and gangster drama.
09:44So, we have seen such films.
09:46Then, Saabdhan was so long.
09:48Saabdhan was so long.
09:49Saabdhan was so long.
09:50Then the whole image was like
09:51that I didn't understand the whole country's
09:52originality.
09:52I don't know how to do it.
09:54I know, I know.
09:59I had a very, very good journey.
10:02Saabdhan was so much fame.
10:04I got a lot of value.
10:05I also got a lot of value.
10:07I also got a lot of savings.
10:09That's why I can say good projects.
10:12I cannot say good projects.
10:13So it gave me a lot sometimes, so definitely.
10:18You, when you were in Big Wall, you had spoken about your struggles and all of that.
10:24And then now when we see you, you're doing phenomenal work.
10:27Of course you are.
10:28So has life changed?
10:30My point has never been that I am not doing phenomenal work or getting or I have not done
10:37phenomenal work, if I may say so myself.
10:41But the point is I don't get in my point is I don't get enough choice.
10:44I don't get enough work.
10:45That is what I was complaining about.
10:47And that's what I whine about most of the times.
10:49But are you getting more work now?
10:51No, not really.
10:52Not really, no.
10:54I mean, far, I think too far too few people come to me with the work, the kind of work which I want to do.
11:03I'm asking you this is because we have a long list of fans here.
11:07They love you on screen.
11:10So what is the one thing you think is not working for you or what is it not working with makers?
11:16Because we want to see what's true.
11:18Well, I don't know.
11:20Maybe makers have a certain impression of me that could be because of me or reasons beyond me.
11:27I could, I mean, I can only speculate about this stuff.
11:33I have spoken about this extensively earlier also.
11:37My last name has a certain history in this business.
11:40I think that influences things.
11:43I have a certain attitude towards life and towards my job.
11:49That could be one reason.
11:51I am, you know, I have, I have, I'm known to express my views about things very freely on social media.
11:59That could be one of the reasons.
12:01It could just be, you know, people who I have insisted that they pay me on time, have, are talking shit about me in the business.
12:13That could be one of the, so anything I say in this regard will be speculation.
12:17So I can only speculate why I am not getting as much work, the kind of work, good work that I want to, but I have no answers for this.
12:27This, you should ask the, you should ask the filmmakers.
12:30Every, I can give you a list.
12:32Every, all of those filmmakers you meet, just ask them, why are you not casting Ranveer?
12:38But when you see the love that comes your way.
12:40From the audience?
12:41I have, I have zero.
12:42How do you think about that?
12:43I have never complained about the audience.
12:45I love my audience and whatever I am, whatever I have is all thanks to the people and the audience, especially in this country, there are some outside also.
12:54Many.
12:55And I, I owe them my entire, you know, life, you can say, but that is the reason why I try to be on social media.
13:07And when I, when I talk, you know, I express myself, I try to be truthful.
13:11That is my return gift to the people who put me where I am.
13:16That if not anything, at least I can be truthful and honest to them.
13:20Yeah.
13:21So coming back to, you know, a lot of, this, I, this question is, this thing, you have a lot of fans, you, people love you so much.
13:31So do you feel the pressure on your shoulders because you have, your series just released and so much of hopes riding on you.
13:37But does that pressure ever like slow you down like a little bit like a break later or what's happening?
13:44It's so much hope that there is a responsibility for me.
13:46Break, break, I am saying, I don't get the work, you say, break, take it.
13:50Break, break, take it.
13:52So responsibility that's what I am.
13:54I am so, I am, I am ready for more is this such responsibility.
13:59I am saying I am ready to play more complex parts, bigger parts, bigger projects.
14:05You know, bring it on.
14:07So I am, I am, I am saying people,
14:11People who are much less than me are giving me a lot of money.
14:14Bring it here.
14:17What about you? What about you? What about you?
14:18What about you? What about you? What about you?
14:20What about you? What about you?
14:22You don't want to take away from your work.
14:27You don't want to take it lightly.
14:29Anyway, because we are passionate about your work.
14:33And when people appreciate that,
14:36you become more cautious.
14:38You don't want to take away from us.
14:40There is no pressure in our preparation.
14:42Besides that, there is no pressure.
14:45On-set, apart from the director, it is okay.
14:49The biggest pressure is to please the director.
14:51Because he is okay.
14:52So beyond that, I don't see beyond that.
14:57When you were working on these sets,
15:02the whole of their mother war was to show the U.P. culture.
15:05Bihar.
15:07Bihar.
15:09How did you set up that whole thing?
15:12Set up is the first of them.
15:15In the sense of it,
15:16I am just saying that the mother of the series is like,
15:20the mother of the whole thing has fallen.
15:21So that's the set up.
15:23It is a simple process.
15:24You have written a story.
15:26It is already set up.
15:27Where you are going to shoot,
15:28there is a set up.
15:30And the rest of them,
15:32they reach the actors to give life.
15:38So all actors know their characters,
15:40and they are ready to reach there.
15:42So set up is just the natural part of the process.
15:48So the prep was very easy.
15:50No, it wasn't easy.
15:51The prep was pretty.
15:53But there is no unique thing.
15:57There is a story that was written on the whole of the story.
16:01But there is no nuance in the story.
16:03It is a script.
16:05And then the characters have gone through it.
16:07So they have to prepare for it.
16:09And then the production design is going to shoot,
16:13how it is set,
16:15how it is created,
16:17how it is created.
16:19And a lot of credit goes to our art director.
16:23Oh sure, that's what I am saying.
16:25Production designer Sukanth.
16:27Sukanth.
16:28Yes.
16:29He is very proud of Sukanth.
16:31The whole universe of the club has created.
16:33The whole universe of the club has created.
16:35Yes.
16:36Yes.
16:37So that is what you create.
16:40People are looking for the membership in India.
16:43Yes.
16:44Where is this club?
16:45Yes.
16:46It is only in Bindiya.
16:48And you can see it on Amazon.
16:50On Amazon MX.
16:51Free.
16:52Correct.
16:5315 million people have seen.
16:55Yes.
16:56You are not going to stay here.
16:57Yes.
16:58Yes.
16:59Sir, you are talking about the terminology.
17:01You have seen the cult classics.
17:02You have seen Satya, Korn.
17:03Then you have done Legends of Bhagat Singh.
17:05And now you are doing Bindiya.
17:07And then you have seen the journey.
17:08How do you feel?
17:09How do you feel?
17:10If you look at the journey,
17:12the journey is good.
17:13There are ups and downs.
17:15There are all of them.
17:16But when the downs are going,
17:18the bands are going.
17:20Definitely.
17:21There are also frustrations.
17:22There are also depression.
17:23But if you look at the back,
17:25then the whole journey,
17:27including the downs,
17:28everything is fun.
17:30Yes.
17:31Because that's what makes your journey interesting.
17:33But you guys,
17:34you have also said that you have a lot of views on social media.
17:37Do you feel that kind of validation?
17:39Do you feel that you get up?
17:40Do you feel that you feel down?
17:41Or do you feel that you feel like
17:42the fans are doing a lot?
17:43This is the validation.
17:44This is the validation.
17:45You have to give a bill.
17:46You have to give a bill.
17:47You don't have to pay for the fans.
17:49You don't have to pay for it.
17:50You don't have to pay for it.
17:51But in today's date,
17:52does social media validation
17:54doesn't need anything like that?
17:56Because social media is important.
17:57It's,
17:58it's,
17:59my experience is,
18:00it can become addictive.
18:03You can take it from a small world.
18:09You feel like this is the world
18:11and I am God.
18:12So,
18:13you should save it from that.
18:15Because,
18:16it's a virtual world.
18:20Actually, it's a virtual world.
18:21Friends,
18:22or the people who are the actual ones
18:24who are in your house,
18:26your friends,
18:27real critics,
18:28and real appreciators.
18:31That's it.
18:32The rest of the world
18:33is going on one day.
18:37How much of social media validation is important?
18:40Validation,
18:41I don't think is the word I would say.
18:45Social media is important.
18:46I think it has,
18:47it has,
18:48it is a great new invention,
18:51new technology.
18:53And like every new technology,
18:55there are positives and there are negatives.
18:58Positives of social media obviously are that you have a voice.
19:01You don't have to depend on just media to be able to talk to people.
19:05That is the big one.
19:07Yeah.
19:08Because earlier it was,
19:09you know,
19:10your only way you can express yourself is through the funnel of media.
19:15and that can be manipulated.
19:18Yeah.
19:19And I have seen it being manipulated many times also.
19:21But in social media gives you the advantage of talking directly to the people,
19:25to the audience.
19:26That is one.
19:27Also the reverse,
19:28you know,
19:29you can directly get feedback from,
19:31from the,
19:32from your audience.
19:33Whether good or bad.
19:34Whether good or bad.
19:36Whether good or bad.
19:37Now,
19:38validation,
19:39I wouldn't,
19:40I only think is,
19:41I don't seek validation in social media.
19:43But how do you see the fact that,
19:44today,
19:45the followers,
19:46are like very important to,
19:48the industry.
19:49Following was important.
19:50I don't think that is also true.
19:53I mean,
19:54maybe,
19:55maybe to some segment.
19:56Yeah.
19:57Maybe some segments people are casting based on social media presence.
20:00But I don't think the business at large is doing that.
20:03What about you?
20:04This is a little bit of a trend
20:08that you will see followers and cast.
20:10Because at the end of the day,
20:11our business,
20:13profession,
20:14is very democratic.
20:17If you're a film critic,
20:19when the film is released,
20:20then,
20:21who has done a good job,
20:22will appreciate it.
20:23Who has done a good job,
20:24who has not done it.
20:25Who has any followers,
20:26who has his son,
20:27who is his son,
20:28who has his son,
20:29no matter what.
20:30After that,
20:31you only have to do the work.
20:32Sir,
20:33what does the director feel?
20:34How does the following matter
20:35and do the casting work?
20:37I don't think it matters.
20:39And,
20:40at the time,
20:41this is true,
20:42that,
20:43the casting is racist
20:45for this part.
20:46followers and the new cast especially. But when you are doing a creative work, you will
20:56see who is capable of doing that and who is capable of doing that. So I think most serious
21:03filmmakers will be doing that. I think it has become more of a producer's problem because
21:12they are seeing that social media now if there is a large number of followers to assert
21:17a person that can bring more audience to your show which is which is the classic star system
21:24example, right? But that's a great way of also decreasing your own follower count.
21:30Last question. Why do you want to see Bindiya Ke Pahubali?
21:41Bindiya Ke Pahubali is full-on entertainment. It's a
21:49It has, it has, yeah, it has, it has full masala, you know, including songs.
21:59Bindiya Ke Pahubali is full-on entertainment.
22:04So it's a full masala and it's for free on Amazon MX with ads and I think season one
22:14One is where the cards have been dealt of season 2 of Jabayega that it's going to be
22:20where the real fun begins.
22:22People are loving you as Chhode Nagal, will we see you more in a gangster role?
22:27In other gangster roles?
22:29No, I don't think there's anything else on the cards.
22:33Anyway, I don't like to get it close to being typecast, especially around when something
22:40has come out.
22:41You know, you give it some time, then later maybe think about it again, playing another
22:45gangster, not the gangster.
22:49But no, there is nothing else on cards.
22:51So enjoy Bindiage Bahubali now because I don't think I want to be a gangster anywhere else
22:56for a long time.
22:57Entertainment, entertainment, entertainment, and that's so many people.
23:02Dirty picture.
23:03Our people are very dirty.
23:06Bloody dirty.
23:07There are so many good actors and such good writing, good set-up.
23:11You won't get anywhere in one banner and one title anywhere.
23:15That's true.
23:16So the biggest USP is there.
23:17Come here and see and enjoy.
23:18Come here and see and enjoy.
23:22There are two things that we have laid out.
23:26What do you want to see?
23:28The third thing I will say is that if you are going to see this world, then there will be
23:34a lot of people who are going to see this world, then there will be a lot of people who
23:41are going to see this world.
23:42And there will be a lot of people who are going to see this world.
23:45So that's why you are going to see this world and enjoy it.
