Ranvir Shorey frequently shares insights into his personal life. Recently, the actor, who finished as the second runner-up on Bigg Boss OTT 3, revealed that he was physically assaulted by Pooja Bhatt’s brother following their breakup.
In an interview with Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel, Ranvir also claimed that filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, Pooja’s father, spread false rumors about him.
The actor, while speaking about his past relationship with Pooja, said, “At the time we had a conflict, I felt that the respect I had for him, he used that manipulatively. When the fight happened, he told my father, ‘Ok, we will rest the matter here, whatever the fight happened between the kids.’ Next day, he proceeded to print utter lies about me, planted false stories in the media against me, painting me as an alcoholic abusive person. All lies!”
Shorey further stated, “Her brother was the one, who assaulted me. He (Mahesh Bhatt) could have told these guys not to talk like that…. In that sense I felt he was manipulative towards me. These are all 25 years old stories, I don’t want to get into them now.”
Ranvir began his acting career with Shashilal Nair’s “Ek Choti Si Love Story,” starring Manisha Koirala in the lead role. Over the years, he has appeared in several Hindi films, including “Khosla Ka Ghosla,” “Pyaar Ke Side Effects,” “Bheja Fry,” “Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.,” “Singh is Kinng,” “A Death In The Gunj,” and “Sonchiriya.”
His last major theatrical release was “Tiger 3,” which starred Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif.
Regarding his upcoming work, Ranvir is set to star in the crime-thriller series “Shekhar Home,” inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. In the series, Kay Kay Menon plays the lead role based on Sherlock, while Ranvir’s character, Jayvrat Sahni, is loosely inspired by John H. Watson.
The show also features Kirti Kulhari, Rasika Duggal, and Dibyendu Bhattacharya in significant roles and is co-directed by Rohan Sippy and Srijit Mukherjee.
