Imtiaz Ali also mentioned that while Shah Rukh Khan’s confidence makes him an effortless communicator
In a recent interview, filmmaker Imtiaz Ali discussed the contrasting personalities of Shah Rukh Khan and Ranbir Kapoor. Ali noted that Shah Rukh Khan possesses a natural confidence and ease when interacting with people, likely due to his extensive experience and background in theater.
On the other hand, Ranbir Kapoor, though immensely talented, tends to be more inhibited and introspective. Ali, who has worked with both actors, shared that while he feels a deep connection with Shah Rukh, his comfort with Ranbir allows for a unique collaborative dynamic. This difference reflects their diverse approaches to their craft.
Imtiaz Ali also mentioned that while Shah Rukh Khan’s confidence makes him an effortless communicator, Ranbir Kapoor’s introspective nature allows him to tap into deep, emotional performances.
Ali recounted a moment from the film Rockstar, where Ranbir fully immersed himself in the role during a crucial scene, highlighting his ability to channel complex emotions despite his reserved demeanor. This contrast in their personalities, according to Ali, is what makes working with each of them a unique experience, bringing different energies to his films.
