Ranbir Kapoor willing to play homosexual on screen

After Fawad Khan played a gay character in ‘Kapoor & Sons’, Ranbir Kapoor is open to play a similar role.

The actor opened up about his professional as well as personal life in an interview to Vogue India. Ranbir lauds his contemporaries for taking up risky roles—be it Alia Bhatt in Udta Punjab and Fawad in Kapoor & Sons.

Asked if he would play a homosexual on camera, Ranbir said: “Sure, but now it’s already been done. Now, he’s (Fawad) opened the door and it’s easy for us to walk through it. But earlier… I must honestly say I might have turned it down.”

Ranbir Kapoor also said he was a lot more receptive playing second lead characters in films, as long as it had a strong base to it. He told the publication, “Suppose tomorrow Rajkumar Hirani offers me the part of Circuit to the new Munnabhai. I would play it and try my best to do it justice.”

Ranbir Kapoor will next be seen in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, releasing this Diwali
