Manoj Muntashir talks about Ranbir Kapoor performing on his songs

Ranbir Kapoor is one of the finest actors in Bollywood. He is currently basking in the success of his recently released film Animal. Not only has the film performed exceptionally well at the box office, but its music has also entertained audiences. Each song, from Satranga to Arjan Vailly, has resonated uniquely with listeners and climbed the music charts.

Recently, Pinkvilla organized a roundtable discussion on Animal's music, where Manoj Muntashir, Raj Shekhar, Ashim Kemson, Shreyas Puranik, and Harshvardhan Rameshwar joined in. They shared their thoughts on Ranbir's performance on their songs in the film.

During the chat, the music maestros were asked how they felt watching Ranbir Kapoor perform their songs on the big screen as an audience. Considering the actor beautifully emotes with his eyes, it must have added to the already melodious songs. Replying to this, Manoj Muntashir instantly said, “sirf aankho se nahi kiya hai, I think  wo jab lip-sync kar rahe hote hain to aapko unke gale ke veins dikh jate hai…wo kaise kar lete hai, unko music ka knowledge hai mujhe nahi pata. But shayad Rajesh Khanna ke baad agar koi actor itne achese se gaane carry karta hai apne upar to wo Ranbir Kapoor hai. (He doesn’t emote only with his eyes. When he is lip-syncing any song we can see the veins on his neck. How he does that, I don’t know. But if there is any actor after Rajesh Khanna who can carry a song so beautifully, it has to be Ranbir Kapoor.)”
