Woh bohot bada star hai aur jab woh acting karega, apna debut karega uss samay meri umar ho jayegi aur mujhe acting chodhni nahi hai toh mujhe uss time par role sirf Taimur ke daddy ka milega toh mein karunga (Taimur will support me at my old age. He will be a big star and when he will make his debut, then at that time I will play the role of his father).”

He added, “Mere budhaape ka sahara hai. Woh achha kare, bohot saari filmein kare aur uski har film mein, mein he uske papa ka role karun (Taimur is going to support me at my old age. He will do very well. He will do a lot of films and I will play the role of his father in all of them).”

Ranveer, who turned 37 on Wednesday was last seen in sports-drama 83, which also starred his wife Deepika Padukone. He will be seen next in Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, also starring Alia Bhatt. He also has Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus in the pipeline, which is scheduled for theatrical release on December 23 this year.
