Ranvir Shorey, known for his versatile performances and ability to captivate audiences, has faced challenges throughout his journey in the film industry. The acclaimed actor, renowned for his roles in films like Khosla Ka Ghosla, opened up about his turbulent relationship with Mahesh Bhatt and Pooja Bhatt.
In an interview with ANI, he shared, “I had great regard for Mr Bhatt (Mahesh Bhatt) till the fiasco happened when I was seeing his daughter (Pooja Bhatt). Then I saw that actually whatever respect I had for him was being used to manipulate me… very duplicitous behaviour going on.”
He also opened up about being isolated by the film industry and added "This fully happens, you know, ganging up against someone, elbowing them out, standing on somebody's toes, scuttling somebody's career. This happens. This is a fact. It happens in politics, corporate and media too. But this part is not glamorous."
Ranvir Shorey also delved into the tragic passing of Sushant Singh Rajput, which ignited discussions about the work environment within the film industry and the issue of cliques forming in Bollywood. Additionally, he addressed experiencing isolation and encountering negative talk within the industry.
“And then this thing happened with Sushant a couple of years later and then I felt like I had to speak out. But all this is, you ask anybody from the film industry, anybody, most of them will say it off record, I can say it on record, I have no problem. This fully happens, you know, ganging up against someone, elbowing them out, standing on somebody’s toes, scuttling somebody’s career. This happens. This is a fact,” he said.
Talking about his bond with Sushant Singh Rajput, he shared, “I wouldn’t say we were close, but we were friends. We worked together. He had been home a few times. And we got along quite well during the two-month-long shoot of Sonchiriya. And we bonded over physics because both of us love physics. We had a lot of conversations on that.”
