The Bollywood industry is currently abuzz with the massive success of the spy thriller Dhurandhar, but along with the box office numbers, a new conversation has emerged regarding lead actor Ranveer Singh’s on-set requirements. Recently, social media was flooded with rumors suggesting that the actor had demanded multiple vanity vans during the film’s production, sparking a debate about the rising costs of star entourages in Indian cinema. However, Gaurav Gera, who played a significant role in the film, has stepped forward to clear the air and defend his co-star against these allegations. During a recent interaction with filmmaker Farah Khan for her popular vlog series, Gaurav addressed the viral claims that Ranveer had three to five vans at his disposal. Gaurav mentioned that during his time on set, he never witnessed such an excessive number of vans and characterized the rumors as largely baseless. He recalled his experience working with Ranveer as being filled with energy and professionalism, noting that the actor is a joy to be around rather than a demanding superstar.
Farah Khan, known for her candid and witty take on industry trends, was also quick to jump to Ranveer’s defense during the conversation at Gaurav’s Mumbai residence. After hearing about the “multiple van” controversy, Farah jokingly suggested that after the incredible performance Ranveer delivered in Dhurandhar, the production should give him five more vanity vans if he wants them. She emphasized that a performer of his caliber brings so much value to a project that such logistical details shouldn’t be the focus of public scrutiny. Farah’s support stems from her high regard for Ranveer’s talent, which she believes justifies any level of comfort he might require to stay focused on his craft. The director-choreographer even teased that people should focus on the quality of the work rather than counting vehicles on a film set, especially when a movie has become a cultural phenomenon.
Adding more context to the working relationship on the sets of the Aditya Dhar directorial, Gaurav shared a lighthearted anecdote about Ranveer’s playful nature. He recounted a moment from a long script-reading session where Ranveer mimicked Gaurav’s famous “Chutki” character, following him during a break and jokingly asking if “Chutki” was going to the washroom. This glimpse into the film’s production highlights a camaraderie that contradicts the image of a distant or demanding actor. While reports had earlier pointed to the film’s end credits as proof of multiple vans, production sources have clarified that the term “van” in that context referred to regular transport vehicles used for the crew during the Thailand schedule, not personal luxury vanity vans. As Dhurandhar continues its record-breaking run in theaters, the industry seems to be siding with the actor, valuing the end result on screen over the whispers of behind-the-scenes luxuries.
