Ranveer
IANS
quoted
Ranveer
as
saying
about
the
role,
"A
lot
of
people
who
know
me
a
little
say
that
the
role
was
perfect
for
me
or
tailor-made
for
me
and
I
will
tell
you
why,
because
it
was
a
combination
of
a
lot
of
things
that
resonate
with
me
very,
very
deeply."
Ranveer's
Love
For
Mumbai
He
also
expressed
his
love
for
his
hometown,
which
is
Mumbai.
"One
is
my
love
for
Mumbai,
I
am
a
bonafide
Mumbai
lad
so
my
love
for
the
city
where
I
am
born
-
yeh
meri
karm
bhoomi
hai,
janam
bhoomi
hai.
So,
it
means
a
lot
to
me
and
I
am
very
proud
of
my
city,
mahanagri
isse
kehte
hain
and
I
see
all
the
beautiful
aspects
of
it
and
I
wanted
to
lay
tribute
to
it
if
the
opportunity
were
to
come
about
and
Gully
Boy
was
that
perfect
opportunity," he
said.
'Zoya
Created
A
Love
Letter
For
Mumbai'
He
added,
"What
Zoya
created
was
a
love
letter
to
Mumbai
and
along
with
the
theme
of
Mumbai
city,
there
was
rap
and
hip
hop
which
also
resonates
with
me
very,
very
deeply.
I
started
listening
to
rap
and
hip-hop
at
a
very
young
age."
How
Murad
And
He
Are
Similar
Talking
about
how
he
was
able
to
connect
with
Murad,
he
said,
"The
essence
of
the
character,
the
core
of
the
character
and
that
is
something
I
really,
really
resonated
with.
Because
I
always
wanted
to
be
an
actor,
just
the
way
this
guy
always
wanted
to
be
a
rapper
and
the
conditions
he
finds
himself
in,
the
given
circumstances
aren't
necessarily
favourable
in
achieving
this
dream
of
his.
But
he
perseveres,
believes
in
himself
and
finally
makes
it."
