- Sonali Raut recalled Ranveer Singh was shy during their bold bikini cover shoot in 2014
- Ranveer described it as his first glamorous shoot and was cautious and nervous on set
- Sonali contrasted Ranveer's shy demeanor then with his current energetic personality
Indian actress and model Sonali Raut, who gained popularity with her 2014 Bollywood film The Xpose and a stint in Bigg Boss 8 and is now a part of Bigg Boss Marathi Season 6, recently opened up about her very different view of Ranveer Singh, with whom she had shot a bold cover shoot.
What's Happening
- Sonali Raut recalled how she was experienced when it came to doing such bold shoots, while Ranveer Singh, being relatively new, was shy.
- Sonali told Filmibeat, "I know Ranveer very differently. I did a pose with him, and after a few years, he did the same pose with Vaani Kapoor. Ranveer, at that time, was very sweet, very friendly and very nice. He was not like (imitates him) 'Yeah', full of energy, no. Actually, he was very shy because again, it was a bikini shoot."
- She continued, "It was very bold. It was glamorous. He said, 'This is my first shoot like that, like very glamorous, and with a girl who's wearing a bikini.' Yeah, he was so cautious. He was chewing gum, he was wearing perfume... I was chill, and even the photographer was like, 'Sonali, don't make him conscious because you are okay, but he's a little nervous. Please make him comfortable.'"
- Sonali Raut reiterated how she remembers him as a very sweet and nervous person on set compared to his vivacious energy now. Furthermore, she added, "You know, Sonali, it's my first shoot. You know, I'm wearing clothes." She mentioned, "I said, 'Yeah, you are wearing clothes, what are you nervous about?' Then he repeated this pose (with Vaani Kapoor)."
