Why 'Bombay Velvet' is closest to Ranbir's Heart

Why

He has mostly fronted romantic and coming of age roles but in 'Bombay Velvet' Ranbir Kapoor will be seen in his most intense avatar, something that the actor found both fascinating and challenging.Set against the backdrop of 1960s Prohibition era Bombay, the Anurag Kashyap-directed movie juxtaposes a man's ambition to grow at all costs with that of a city.'It is my most angry role, it is very intense. I have never even slapped in my earlier movies. The intensity is there because of the place that Johnny comes from. His aggression is about survival. It is not out of choice,' Ranbir told.The 32-year-old actor, who along with the entire star cast is in Goa for the film's promotions, said Kashyap helped him a lot to get into the skin of the character.
