Ranbir Kapoor's hairstyle in Animal was inspired by Michael Jackson, says Aalim Hakim: ‘Uski entry moonwalk pe hai'
Ranbir Kapoor made a splash with the release of his film Animal in December 2023. The film sparked a social media debate over its misogynistic tone, even as it shattered box office records. Ranbir's look in the film was also a topic of discussion, where he sported long hair and a heavy beard. In an interview with celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim on Hindi Rush, it was revealed that Ranbir's long hair and curls look was inspired by Michael Jackson. (Also read: Sandeep Reddy Vanga had to be convinced to keep Ranbir Kapoor's hair long in Animal; he thought it looked like Sanju) During the interaction, Aalim said in Hindi, 'There were multiple looks in Animal. In that film, Vanga sir had told that the lead has long hair, but he had it in his younger days and then cut it off for his father and then upon return from America, he also has long hair. So both these long hair looks must be different. When I was told that the character is a fan of Michael Jackson, then it hit me, how he has this entire leather jacket-white t-shirt look. I cracked the look and took inspiration from Michael Jackson's curls and man bun for Ranbir.' He went on to add, 'I collected the iconic pictures of Michael Jackson and recreated that look. When people watched the film, they were not able to see that it is the same style. Now that I am saying it, one can see the similarities. Uski entry moonwalk pe hain (He makes his entry with a moonwalk).' Animal tells the story of Ranvijay Singh, who goes on a rampage after his father, Balbir Singh (Anil Kapoor), is threatened. After going through a bunch of enemies before facing off against Abrar Haque (Bobby Deol), his long-lost cousin. The film also starred Rashmika Mandanna and Tripti Dimri. A sequel of the film, titled Animal Park, has already been announced.

‘Ranbir Kapoor will always be special to me': Deepika Padukone's honest throwback moment
Who doesn't remember the sizzling romance between Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor ? Once considered Bollywood's most beloved couple, they captured the hearts of fans across the country. Their love story wasn't just tabloid fodder—it felt real, intense, and destined for forever. But fate had other plans. While the two eventually found lasting love elsewhere—Deepika with Ranveer Singh and Ranbir with Alia Bhatt—and both are now proud parents of baby girls, their past relationship still holds a special place in Bollywood's collective memory. A Walk Down Memory Lane Deepika and Ranbir's love story began in 2008 on the sets of Bachna Ae Haseeno . Both were fresh faces in the industry: Deepika had made a dream debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om (2007), while Ranbir had stepped into the limelight with Saawariya (2007). Their romance blossomed quickly and publicly—they walked red carpets hand in hand, gave joint interviews, and made appearances at every major Bollywood event. It was a young, vibrant love that fans couldn't get enough of. But in 2009, just a year after going public, their relationship came to an end. The breakup made headlines, and Deepika later hinted that infidelity on Ranbir's part had contributed to their split. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Despite the emotional upheaval, both stars handled the aftermath with maturity. From Heartbreak to Harmony What stood out was not the breakup, but how gracefully they moved on—not just personally, but professionally. They went on to star together in two iconic films: Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) and Tamasha (2015). Their electric on-screen chemistry remained untouched, and fans couldn't help but root for them all over again—this time, even if only in fiction. In a 2011 interview with Rediff , Deepika shared her thoughts on their evolved relationship: 'We are in a very friendly and comfortable space. He will always be special to me, not just because of what we shared, but because of who he is as a person.' An Enduring Connection Looking back, the Deepika-Ranbir chapter is one of Bollywood's most cherished throwback tales—a romance that didn't last forever but one that still shines bright in the memories of fans. It's a testament to how love, even when it fades, can transform into mutual respect and lasting friendship. Their story reminds us that not every relationship needs a perfect ending to be meaningful—sometimes, the moments we share are enough.

Talking about Ramayana, just a few days back, it was also revealed that Ranbir and Yash will barely be seen sharing screen space together in Ramayana. According to sources close to the production, 'The makers have chosen to stay true to the original Valmiki text, where Lord Ram and Raavan do not encounter each other through most of the epic. Their worlds remain apart, their stories unfolding in parallel until destiny brings them face-to-face in the climactic battle. As per the original narrative, Ram learns of Raavan's existence only after Sita's abduction, and the two never meet until the battlefield confrontation in Lanka." Meanwhile, several media reports also suggest that the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has cleared the first promo of Ramayana. The 2-minute-36-second promo has received a 'U' certificate from the Mumbai Regional Office of the board. However, official confirmation regarding this is still awaited.
