Actor
Ranbir
Kapoor,
who
started
his
career
as
an
assistant
director
to
filmmaker
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali,
says
if
he
has
to
pen
down
a
portion
of
his
life,
then
it
would
be
the
time
when
he
assisted
Bhansali
on
the
film
Black.
He
says
that
phase
transformed
him
completely
from
an
"aimless
slacker
boy
to
a
worthy
person".
"I
have
not
thought
about
it
(writing
a
book)
at
all.
I
have
miles
to
go
before
I
can
think
of
something
like
that,"the
32-year-old
told
reporters
here
at
the
launch
of
cover
of
Ronnie
Screwvala's
book
"Dream
With
Your
Eyes
Open".
"But
if
I
had
to,
then
it
would
be
the
time
when
I
assisted
Mr.
Bhansali
(Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali)
on
'Black',
because
that
was
the
time
I
really
switched
from
just
being
an
aimless
slacker
boy
to
somebody
who
wants
to
do
something
in
his
life
related
to
films," he
added.
Before
foraying
into
acting
with
Bhansali's
directorial
Saawariya
(2007),
Ranbir
worked
as
an
assistant
director
with
Bhansali.
Although
the
film
didn't
work,
however,
Ranbir
was
noticed
for
his
performance
and
he
bagged
Filmfare's
Best
Male
Debut
Award.
Further,
he
praised
the
National
Award
winning
director
and
said,
"He
was
a
great
mentor,
he
was
a
great
teacher,
so
to
write
something
about
that
would
be
interesting."
Meanwhile,
Ranbir
is
awaiting
the
release
of
his
film
Bombay
Velvet,
directed
by
Anurag
Kashyap.
