Ranbir Kapoor: Last five years have been grateful

Grateful at having worked with "interesting filmmakers" since his 2007 debut, actor Ranbir Kapoor confessed that playing himself in his forthcoming release Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (YJHD) is "harder" than enacting characters in his previous films. "I am grateful that I got to work with such good directors. I was at the right place at the right time... I got these opportunities and I was intelligent enough to grab it. "I think these (Anurag Basu, Ayan Mukerji) are really interesting filmmakers. They have great things to say through their movies... I just kind of tag along on their vision," said Ranbir here.

Son of veteran actors Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, Ranbir made his debut in director Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 2007 film Saawariya which didn't find favour at the box office. However, his work in his subsequent ventures Wake Up Sid, Rockstar and Barfi! won him accolades and awards.

Describing his celluloid journey so far as "amazing", Ranbir acknowledged that his passion and profession are the same.

"It's been amazing. I don't know how these five years have passed... I don't know how these nine film have released. I am really happy that I get to do what I love and I think what is important is that you should do what you love," he said.

His next film is Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. Directed by Ayan Mukerji it also stars Deepika Padukone.

"Rockstar and Barfi! are far more easier for me because I am playing a character. In films like YJHD, I have to play myself, which is way more harder because you have to reflect your own personality," he explained.

Produced by Dharma Productions, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, releasing on May 31, also stars Kalki Koechlin and Aditya Roy Kapur.                              

Subhash Ghai: Kaanchi is very promising

Kaanchi features Kartik Tiwari and newcomer Mishti in the lead roles. The film also features Rishi Kapoor and Mithoon Chakraborty.

In his more than three-decade-long career so far, Subhash Ghai not only discovered talents like Manisha Koirala (with Saudagar) and Mahima Chaudhry (with Pardes) but has also worked with big and established stars like Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit and Shah Rukh Khan, among others.

And now in his latest directorial Kaanchi, he is working with new faces but for Subhash Ghai, it is the story which is important.

According to him, everyone who can pull out the character in his film, is a star for him.

"For me, only that person is star who is in front of the camera at that moment, whether he is a newcomer, or a star," Subhash Ghai said.

"For me, my subject, my story (that I am telling) is important. For me, all the actors with whom I am working are superstars and vice-versa. Even a superstar is always an actor for me, who is playing a character," he added.

Kaanchi is a love story of a young, beautiful girl from northern mountains, who fights against power.

It is slated to release Aug 30.
