Guess What? Ranveer Singh Has A Jim Morrison Connection In Padmaavat!

Jim Morrison, lead vocalist of The Doors had an important role to play during the production of Bhansali’s magnum opus.

Speaking exclusively to SpotboyE.com Editor Vickey Lalwani, Ranveer revealed that he drew inspiration from Jim Morrison’s classic expression while enacting his signature step in the movie.

For those who have seen Bhansali’s master piece, you might recall Ranveer’s classic serpent-like step (spreading his arms and swirling his head) that he does to portray extreme emotions – be it happiness, horror or dejection. When asked how he got it so right, the actor was quick to compliment Bhansali.

“Bhansali Sir told me to refer to Jim Morrison, The Doors, to get the emotion and step right. That’s all it took. Four words – Jim Morrison, The Doors. And bingo, I got it bang on,” says Ranveer.
