Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor delivered the biggest blockbuster flick of his career in 2023. Helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, and also starring Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol, Triptii Dimri and Anil Kapoor in pivotal roles, alongside RK, Animal broke several box office records. Now, the Saawariya actor is prepping for another magnum opus Ramayana, in which he will be seen essaying the role of Lord Ram. RK has been quite busy these days with the shooting of Ramayana. While Nitesh Tiwari's selection of Ranbir divided the internet, recently, his trainer compared the Brahmastra actor with the living legend Amitabh Bachchan and Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan.
Millennium star Amitabh Bachchan has engraved several milestones throughout his career spanning over five decades which no other actor can ever achieve. Even Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan has reached the pinnacle of success throughout his illustrious career spanning over 30 years and his popularity sprawls overseas.
Undoubtedly, Ranbir is quite a fresh actor in comparison to Big B and Aamir, with a career spanning over 15 years only. However, RK's trainer compared the Rockstar actor with the Kalki 2898 AD and Laal Singh Chaddha actors and also revealed the reason.

Ranbir's amazing transformation from a lean 6-pack body in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar to gaining 10-12 Kgs for Animal, remained the topic of discussion for quite a long time. Recently, during an interview with Humans Of Bombay's Realign podcast, RK's trainer Shivoham opened up about the actor's mindset for the transformation and what was behind the training.
Shivoham revealed that the transformation was a long process and there was a lot of work that went behind it.
"He is a lean person so for him to gain 10–12 kgs over a period of 1 year was definitely a process," said the trainer.
Praising Ranbir, Shivoham added, "In one of my interviews, I compared Amit ji and Ranbir about how amazing they are when it comes to timing. I can probably count on my fingers how many times he has been late.”
Talking about Ranbir's mindset during preparations for Animal, Shivoham revealed that at that time he was not sure what it would feel like, but now he loves it.
"Ranbir is definitely one of those like Aamir who does exactly that—what is needed for the role because that is a priority," he added.
Furthermore, Shivoham said that Ranbir doesn't do it for the sake of vanity or anything else, but for the role that demands him to look a certain way.
Well, Ranbir Kapoor is undeniably one of the most talented actors that Bollywood has. Fans are well aware of his sacrifices and his preparations to fit into the role of Lord Ram. Undoubtedly, fans are excited to see their matinee idol as Lord Ram. Apart from Ramayana, Ranbir has Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Love and War, alongside Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal. Reportedly, he will be seen in a grey shade in the movie. Furthermore, he also has Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra: Part Two- Dev.
