Early Life
Ranveer Singh was born in a Sindhi family to Anju and Jagjit Singh Bhavnani. During his younger days, he was always attracted to movies and would participate in school plays and debates. His excitement knew no bounds, when his grandmother asked him to entertain her at a birthday party and Ranveer instantly performed on the hit song 'Jumma Chumma' from the movie 'Hum'. However, as he grew up, he realized that getting an entry into Bollywood is not for lesser mortals like him and hence joined H.R. College of Commerce and Economics in Mumbai.

Subsequently, he landed in United States to get a degree in Arts from Indiana University, Bloomington. At the university, he decided to take acting classes and kept his dream of acting in movies alive. He also took up theatre as his minor subject. He returned to Mumbai after getting his degree and chose to pursue a career in creative writing. He started working in advertising agencies such as O & M and J. Walter Thompson as a copy writer. After a short stint as copy writer, he again shifted his focus to his calling – acting. To achieve his dream, he started working as an assistant director and meanwhile kept sending his portfolios to various directors. Ranveer attended all kinds of auditions, but did not get an opportunity. As a result, he was dejected and at one point even questioned his choice of career. However, things changed when he got a call from Yash Raj Films for an audition and the rest is history.
Filmography & Acting Career
2010 - 2012: Debut and Success

He again called Ranveer for a series of auditions until he was finally convinced. The movie slowly and steadily picked up with word of mouth and went on to become a sleeper hit. Ranveer received praise for playing the role of uncouth yet good hearted boy. His performance won him his first Filmfare award.

In the subsequent year, Ranveer was seen as a Bengali criminal in the movie 'Gunday' where his superb screen presence and his chemistry with Arjun Kapoor was applauded by critics.
