The 18-year-old was taken to hospital in a serious condition
Director Prakash Jha says the young actor’s character “defines democracy in today’s world”.
“Ranbir is so excited about his look and dialogues. He needs to play a character who defines democracy in today’s world. I wouldn’t describe it as a multi-starrer. It’s a multi-actor film,” Jha said.
Ranbir’s role sounds familiar to that of Abhishek Bachchan in Ram Gopal Varma’s Sarkar.
Ranbir also has Katrina Kaif as his co-star, just like Abhishek Bachchan did. In Sarkar, Katrina’s voice had to be dubbed although she played an NRI, but in Rajneeti, Katrina would be giving long speeches in her own voice and that too in Hindi.
“Katrina Kaif is such a revelation. She was so nervous giving a speech in front of 10,000 people. After she gave her speech I hugged her on stage’,” Jha said.
Ranbir plays a Harvard-educated US-based NRI who has to return home to look after his mother’s political empire. Ranbir won’t play the reluctant politician in the usual khadi kurta-pyjama dress code. “Ranbir will be very trendily dressed. He plays a young man of today,” Jha said.
“Ranbir even offered to leave whatever he was doing and join us in Bhopal although his shooting starts next month. I remember one day Ajay, Nana, Arjun and Manoj were working together and missing Ranbir. So in the evening we got together in my hotel room and called him. Ranbir spoke to each of us individually. He wanted to leave everything in Mumbai and join us in Bhopal.”
