Ranbir Kapoor: News

One of the highest-paid actors of Bollywood, Ranbir Kapoor, is an Indian film actor and a member of the industry-dominating Kapoor family. Born and brought up in a family with a film background, he was meant to enter the film industry. After completing his school education, Kapoor went to study filmmaking in New York and acting in Manhattan. On returning, he was hired as an assistant director by Sanjay Leela Bhansali for 'Black'. In 2007, Ranbir made a debut with the film 'Saawariya' alongside Sonam Kapoor and Rani Mukerji. He won the Best Male Debut Award at the Filmfare Awards ceremony that year. Later, 'Bachna Ae Haseeno' became his first box office hit. In 2009, he starred in 'Wake Up Sid' and 'Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani', which became one of the highest-grossing films of the year. Ranbir's 'Rockstar' gained him international fame and won him many accolades. In 2013, he gained further success with 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani'. However, his career saw commercial struggle after 2014. His movies 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' and 'Sanju' brought him back into the industry.
