Ranbir apprehensive of romance post Jagga Jasoos debacle, turns down offers

Ranbir Kapoor has decided to stay away from romance for the time being, no we aren’t talking about his personal life.

The actor, who will be seen playing Sanjay Dutt in the latter’s biopic and then in a superhero flick called Brahmastra, has decided to not try romance or romantic comedies on the big screen.

“The failure of Jagga Jasoos has impacted Ranbir a lot,” says our source, adding. “He understands that he needs to do a variety of characters now, before people stop offering him such roles. He’s still a big star and has a strong box office appeal, apart from having brand value among corporates. The rushes of Rajkumar Hirani’s Dutt biopic are superb, and Ranbir now realises that he needs to change his route quickly.”

Recently, Ranbir outright rejected two romantic film offers, and asked the filmmakers to come up with more interesting scripts he could work on.

One can only hope that Ranbir, who gained fame with movies like Wake Up Sid, will have more luck with this gamble.
