Birth and Early Life

Born on the 6th of July 1985 into a family of several actors and actresses, Ranveer had an interest in the film industry. However, he was aware of the difficulties faced by those who wanted to venture into the field for the first time. In fact, as he later confirmed, he was a little skeptical, feeling that perhaps his dream was far-fetched. When he went to college in Mumbai to pursue a commerce and economics course, he pushed out the idea of acting for a while.

He later on joined an Indiana University for a Bachelor of Arts Degree. While there, he took acting classes. After completing his studies and getting back to Mumbai, he did a bit of advertising and worked with several agencies like J. Walter Thompson and O&M. He even got promoted to the post of director in one of the companies he was working at.
