Piyush Mishra lauds Ranbir Kapoor; says, “Ranbir is a magician, he is a really wonderful actor, and it is always so much fun to talk to him” : Bollywood News

Piyush Mishra, an actor-singer-writer, and Bollywood superstar Ranbir Kapoor collaborated on director Imtiaz Ali's 2015 film Tamasha, and it's obvious that Mishra cherishes his memories of the two of them. He remembers how enjoyable it was to work with him in a recent interview. Piyush expressed his admiration for Ranbir, whose conversational demeanour never fails to capture his attention. He referred to Ranbir as a magician and stated that the latter frequently engages in dirty conversation.

In a recent appearance on Mashable's The Bombay Journey series, Mishra claimed that he had decided to work on Tamasha because Imtiaz Ali had impressed him with the description of a pivotal sequence. Piyush also discussed his experiences working with Ranbir in the 2011 film Rockstar and Tamasha in 2015. The actor remarked that he genuinely liked the notion of exploding on Ranbir in that sequence when director Imtiaz Ali first presented Tamasha to him.

Piyush played a storyteller in Tamasha, but in Rockstar, he took on the role of a music label owner who aids Ranbir's character in becoming a well-known celebrity.

He went down memory lane and recalled, “Ranbir aisa ladka hai, bohot badhiya actor hai pehli baat toh, bohot badhiya jaadugar insaan hai. Talkative hai, usse baat cheet karne me bada mazza aata hai. Kai baar besharmi ki baatein karta hai, adhiktar besharmi ki baatein karta hai. Nangi baatein karta hai, bada mujhe intrigue karta hai… Imtiaz purana sathi tha. (Ranbir is a magician, he is a really wonderful actor, and it is always so much fun to talk to him. He talks with a lot of impudence. He intrigues me a fair bit).” Tamasha was a three-day shoot and I was done in a day.”

The movie Tamasha was released on November 27, 2015, to mixed reviews from critics who lauded Kapoor and Padukone's acting but berated the plot's complexity. The movie was recently re-released on the occasion of Valentine’s week.
