Actor Ranbir Kapoor rises to be an influential name in Bombay of the Sixties in the second trailer of Bombay Velvet.

Watch Ranbir Kapoor’s journey from being a cage-fighter to becoming ‘bigshot’ Johnny Balraj with the help of Karan Johar, who plays a Parsi businessman named Kaizad Khambatta in the film.

Kaizad, the antagonist of Bombay Velvet, helps Johnny rise to power by devising money minting techniques, even if they are unlawful in nature. But their eventual fallout is chronicled in the second trailer of the film.

Film’s leads Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Karan Johar were candidly caught with Kay Kay Menon, Anurag Kashyap and other crew members at the event. The BV team knows how to have fun and we witnessed them, taking digs at each other in a fun way, every now and then.

“My character, Khambatta is humorous and intrigued in the movie. Ranbir co-directed the movie. I used to get one direction from Anurag & three others from him”, said Karan Johar and also added, “I’ve done Bombay Velvet for Rs.11. I’m not only inspired but also cheap. *laughs*”

Our bigshot Ranbir Kapoor is quite a hugger and revealed that “Anurag was like a teddy bear on the set.” “After a long time I took a role only based on the amazing script of the movie”, said RK. The film’s leading lady, Anushka had Geeta Dutt as her point of reference for her role in the film.

Bombay Velvet is based on Prof Gyan Prakash’s book Bombay Fables. Actress Anushka Sharma plays a jazz singer and Ranbir’s love interest in the film. The second trailer shows how Johnny and Kaizad’s partnership turns bitter towards the end, paving way for rivalry among the former allies.
